Look out for these signs:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Gaps in the seal

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Your questions about bath resealing in Upper Denby

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

What areas do you cover?

All of Wakefield, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Upper Denby?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Resealing in Upper Denby: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

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.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
