Bath resealing near Woolstone

Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to Woolstone. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Woolstone. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

If you’re in Woolstone and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Bath resealing in Woolstone, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and gaps in the seal, in shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

When to call us in Woolstone

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Stained silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

Resealing in Woolstone: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Take a look at our pricing.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

FAQs for Woolstone

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time, usually around a day.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
