Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Bath resealing in Ingoldisthorpe without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are unsealed corners and black mould in the sealant.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Resealing in Ingoldisthorpe: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep the joints dry

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ingoldisthorpe

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

FAQs for Ingoldisthorpe

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?

Everywhere in the UK, Ingoldisthorpe included. Travel is included in the price.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
