Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A fixed quote before you book

Read our full price list.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your WF4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

How we price bath resealing

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

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

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in West Hardwick

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

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

When to call us in West Hardwick

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

How to compare quotes

West Hardwick questions

Do you work in West Hardwick?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to West Hardwick for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How long does resealing take?

Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
