Bath resealing near Wheelock

How we price bath resealing

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we handle bath resealing in Wheelock

Preparation is everything in a reseal: 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. Typical jobs include stained silicone and black spots in the silicone, across basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Wheelock and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common problems we fix in Wheelock

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • A messy previous reseal

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of 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 normally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Landlord and trade work in Wheelock

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Wheelock, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Wheelock

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Resealing in Wheelock: why it matters

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. 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.
