Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Use the extractor fan

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. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Your questions about bath resealing in Westdean

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Westdean?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you cover the entire of East Sussex?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

When to call us in Westdean

Our hiring checklist

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Westdean

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How we price bath resealing

We do not charge extra for travel to Westdean. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Westdean, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
