About our bath resealing in Ludlow

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s mould you can’t clean out and old sealant that looks dirty, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Our work in Ludlow

Ludlow is about 20 miles west of Kidderminster, in Shropshire. Anywhere in SY8, we come to you. Our technicians cover all 433 towns and villages in Shropshire, from the larger towns to small villages. Our jobs stretch from Ludlow to Birmingham (35 miles away).

Here we cover the SY8 postcode area. That includes homes on Market Street, High Street and Castle Square and the roads around them. Ludlow sits on or near the A49 and B4361, which makes travel easy.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Ludlow

We do not charge extra for travel to Ludlow. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t 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.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SY8 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Resealing in Ludlow: why it matters

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One price list for the whole UK

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

FAQs for Ludlow

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Ludlow?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

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

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
