What affects the price in Staxigoe
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.
How we handle bath resealing in Staxigoe
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We are frequently asked to fix damp near the bath and gaps by the taps, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about bath resealing in Staxigoe
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you cover the whole of Highland?
Everywhere in the UK, Staxigoe included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep the joints dry
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

Related advice
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A flexing bath
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
