How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to around two hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Bath resealing in Lackham, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and mould you can’t clean out, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

FAQs for Lackham

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

How much does bath resealing cost in Lackham?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Are there extra charges for Lackham?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Signs you need bath resealing in Lackham

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • An untidy old seal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Lackham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
