Resealing in Murcott: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and the jobs we see most are gaps in the seal and silicone smeared on tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What affects the price in Murcott

There’s no charge for travel to Murcott. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Murcott. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Questions from Murcott

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your NN6 postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
