Why reseal now?

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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

When to call us in Shillingford St George

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

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

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Your questions about bath resealing in Shillingford St George

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

How much does bath resealing cost in Shillingford St George?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your EX2 postcode.

Do you work in Shillingford St George?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Shillingford St George from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How long does resealing take?

Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Will it make a mess?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
