How to compare quotes

Resealing in Upton: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Questions from Upton

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

How much does bath resealing cost in Upton?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most customers in Upton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Upton

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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