FAQs for Mount Pleasant
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How much does bath resealing cost in Mount Pleasant?
We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DL16 postcode.
Are there extra charges for Mount Pleasant?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Dry the seal after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
