What affects the price in Porton
There is no area surcharge for Porton. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Bath resealing at your home in Porton
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We are frequently asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and silicone smeared on tiles, across wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
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.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What we are called out for in Porton
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Unsealed corners
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price covers travel
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the colour is matched
Porton: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Porton?
We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

All of Wiltshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Porton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
