What bath resealing costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Wolborough. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wolborough. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from pictures so you don’t 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.

The process
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.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Your questions about bath resealing in Wolborough
How long before I can shower?
Typically after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Do you work in Wolborough?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Wolborough from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Let steam out after showers
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wolborough
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
