Our hiring checklist

How we handle bath resealing in Westmuir

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Westmuir. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • The material

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Westmuir, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow around two hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Resealing in Westmuir: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Read our prices page.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Westmuir questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How long does a reseal take?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
