How it works

- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
Bath resealing in Lane End, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and mould you can’t clean out, across kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Your questions about bath resealing in Lane End
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How long does a reseal take?
Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
What bath resealing costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Lane End. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
