Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why it’s worth resealing in Twyford

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why Twyford customers choose us

Common problems we fix in Twyford

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
