Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Mount Florida. 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 quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
About our bath resealing in Mount Florida
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Mount Florida as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What else we do in Mount Florida
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.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
FAQs for Mount Florida
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A flexing bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What we are called out for in Mount Florida
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Look out for these signs:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Gaps by the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
