Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Signs you need bath resealing in Meltonby
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Common reasons people in Meltonby contact us include:

- Damp near the bath

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

FAQs for Meltonby
Do you work in Meltonby?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Meltonby. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
