Bath resealing near Perranarworthal

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our full price list.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we are called out for in Perranarworthal

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Unsealed corners

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Questions from Perranarworthal

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time, typically around a day.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
