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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

About our bath resealing in Upper Horsebridge

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Common call-outs are for sealant that’s split or lifting and silicone smeared on tiles, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

  • Shower trays & enclosures

Resealing in Upper Horsebridge: why it matters

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

See our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Upper Horsebridge. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Upper Horsebridge. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Common problems we fix in Upper Horsebridge

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Upper Horsebridge questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Upper Horsebridge is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

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.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
