What bath resealing costs

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. 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.

Landlord and trade work in Teasley Mead

If you manage property in Teasley Mead, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Teasley Mead use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep the joints dry

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Common questions in Teasley Mead

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Generally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How long does silicone take to cure?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover Teasley Mead?

We do. Technicians travel to Teasley Mead from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are there extra charges for Teasley Mead?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Related advice

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Resealing in Teasley Mead: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
