How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Little Tey. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CO6 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Resealing in Little Tey: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Tey

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Your questions about bath resealing in Little Tey

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Usually because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
