Bath resealing in Moorfields

How we price bath resealing

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Bath resealing in Moorfields, done in place

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. We are often asked to fix black spots in the silicone and a messy previous reseal, in basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Moorfields as everywhere else we work.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Moorfields: your questions answered

Do you work in Moorfields?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Moorfields. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Moorfields as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
