How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Signs you need bath resealing in Wigmore

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Stained silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Before you book anyone

  • If travel is included in the price

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

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

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
