Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Bath resealing in Wall, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s mould you can’t clean out and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Why it’s worth resealing in Wall

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything

See our prices page.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Wall

In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Damp near the bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Aftercare advice
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlord and trade work in Wall

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NE46 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, 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. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Wall questions

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
