How we price bath resealing

There is no area surcharge for Willisham. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Willisham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Bath resealing in Willisham without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about missing sealant behind the taps and silicone smeared on tiles.

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

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Willisham as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common problems we fix in Willisham

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black spots in the silicone

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Why it’s worth resealing in Willisham

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Your questions about bath resealing in Willisham

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How much does bath resealing cost in Willisham?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.
