Questions from Mitchel Troy

How long does a reseal take?

Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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.

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Common problems we fix in Mitchel Troy

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Comparing quotes

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
