Trusted bath resealing in Stoke Bishop

How we price bath resealing

We don’t charge extra for travel to Stoke Bishop. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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 price the job.

Bath resealing at your home in Stoke Bishop

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and people most often call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and missing sealant behind the taps.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Why it’s worth resealing in Stoke Bishop

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our pricing.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Stoke Bishop questions

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you come to Stoke Bishop?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Stoke Bishop and the rest of Bristol. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

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 we will come back with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
