What affects the price in Wilson
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Bath resealing at your home in Wilson
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. If you’re dealing with gaps in the seal and gaps by the taps, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wilson
If you manage property in Wilson, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Questions from Wilson
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How much does bath resealing cost in Wilson?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your DE73 postcode.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage

Do you need bath resealing in Wilson?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
