Bath resealing in New Houghton, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and sealant that’s split or lifting, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

New Houghton: your questions answered

Is my repair covered?

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

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

How long does resealing take?

Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

How much does bath resealing cost in New Houghton?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
