Bath resealing in Peppard Hill, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and leaks at the edges, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

We work UK-wide, so Peppard Hill is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you come to Peppard Hill?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Peppard Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What we’re called out for in Peppard Hill

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your RG9 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Resealing in Peppard Hill: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
