Bath resealing near Overchurch

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Bath resealing in Overchurch without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting behind the bath or tray and mould you can’t clean out.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Overchurch

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

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Can I fix it myself?

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Overchurch, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

FAQs for Overchurch

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you come to Overchurch?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Overchurch from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
