Book bath resealing in Pockthorpe

What bath resealing costs

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size

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 you will get a fixed figure back.

About our bath resealing in Pockthorpe

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and water getting behind the bath or tray.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Pockthorpe and across East Riding of Yorkshire.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the area is dry

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Pockthorpe questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are there extra charges for Pockthorpe?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your YO25 postcode.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you cover Pockthorpe?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Pockthorpe and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Why it’s worth resealing in Pockthorpe

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
