Rough Estimate - fixing a leaking shower

[hoyle23]

Hello,

I have been advised that my shower is leaking where it joins to the wall. To fix this I have been advised that the shower screen needs removing and then sealing back to the wall so no water can get through. For this they have estimated it would take 3-4 hours. I am looking to see if anyone would have a rough price for this and if this time sounds reasonable

Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks,
Andrew.

welcome to the forums Andrew unfortunately we don't encourage prices in open forum because they vary widely depending where you are in the country. 3-4 hours sounds about right though. if you tell us how much they have quoted we can tell you if it a reasonable amount.

From what you're saying it seems to me that the silicone beading needs to be replaced but without seeing a picture of the actual problem it's difficult to know exactly what we're dealing with here. If indeed the shower enclosure does need to be taken out, cleaned up and refitted then I'd be asking for around £*Oops, edited*

Like I say though, a picture would help.

Prices vary nationwide so aren't discussed on this forum, by getting more than one estimate you'll have a better idea of what's reasonable or not.

Hello,

Thanks for the quick replies. I am waiting on the quote so I don't know of the price yet. I'll advise of the quote when I receive it, I live in Leeds for reference.

Thanks,

No Idea, waiting on some quotes but not sure of what region they will be in.

I live in the area and if done properly then would expect it to just touch the three figure mark plus vat
