Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Wilsthorpe: your questions answered
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you cover Wilsthorpe?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Wilsthorpe and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How long does resealing take?
Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Wilsthorpe included. Travel is included in the price.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Resealing in Wilsthorpe: why it matters
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
