Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

When to call us in Iffley

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Damp near the bath

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

FAQs for Iffley

Will it make a mess?

How much does bath resealing cost in Iffley?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How we price bath resealing

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Iffley, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Landlords, agents and businesses in Iffley

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Iffley as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
