What affects the price in Westbourne

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Bath resealing in Westbourne, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps by the taps.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Westbourne

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

How long does a reseal take?

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

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Westbourne included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Why it’s worth resealing in Westbourne

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

When to call us in Westbourne

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

For landlords and businesses

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

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
