DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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

Bath resealing in Wymering without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and gaps in the seal, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What bath resealing costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Wymering: your questions answered

Do you cover the entire of Portsmouth?

Across the UK, so Wymering is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you cover Wymering?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Wymering and the rest of Portsmouth. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Wymering

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Do you need bath resealing in Wymering?

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Unsealed corners
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Why it’s worth resealing in Wymering

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
