Bath resealing near Lydney

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

Bath resealing in Lydney without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We are often asked to fix gaps in the seal and leaks at the edges, in shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Lydney

There is no area surcharge for Lydney. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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 we will come back with a fixed figure.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Lydney questions

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What information do you need?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

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

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Are there extra charges for Lydney?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

When to call us in Lydney

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lydney

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents often 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.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price
