About our bath resealing in Wayford
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We’re frequently asked to fix an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting, in kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Wayford: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How much does bath resealing cost in Wayford?
We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Landlord and trade work in Wayford
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we’re called out for in Wayford
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- An untidy old seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray

Advice
What affects the price in Wayford
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Why it’s worth resealing in Wayford
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
