Trusted bath resealing in Yarcombe

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Related advice

Bath resealing in Yarcombe, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Yarcombe

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Yarcombe is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you do not 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.

When to call us in Yarcombe

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Common reasons people in Yarcombe contact us include:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps in the seal

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How to look after the finish
  • How the colour is matched
  • What preparation is included

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Why it’s worth resealing in Yarcombe

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Read our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
