How we handle bath resealing in Market Bosworth

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s an untidy old seal and gaps in the seal, we can typically put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How to compare quotes

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Market Bosworth. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Market Bosworth. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Market Bosworth, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Market Bosworth

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Market Bosworth use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Let steam out after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Everything repaired in place
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our full price list.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Market Bosworth

Questions from Market Bosworth

Do I have to be there?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

How much does bath resealing cost in Market Bosworth?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
