Bath resealing in Wookey

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Bath resealing at your home in Wookey

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and mould you can’t clean out, we can usually put it right.

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

Do you need bath resealing in Wookey?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Unsealed corners

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Wookey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why Wookey customers choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

FAQs for Wookey

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Wookey?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
