"Hi,
Around £250 including materials.
Thanks"
"If you are intending to do the job yourself it will cost a few pounds for a tube of silicone.
If you are looking at someone to do it for you it would be around the £30 mark."
"Hi there this is a fairly quick and easy job expect to pay around £10-£20"

Answered on 6th Jan 2020 - Member since Dec 2017 - report"Hello. It shouldn't take long you will probably be charged for an hour plus the cost of sanitary sealant. This should cost more than £10. If you give the join a good clean before the tradesman arrives this will save time.
Kind regards,
Jason"
"It depends on the place. If i'm required to clean the existing silicon and re- seal then it's an hours rate.
But anyway the minimum charge is £50."
"Including the materials, this should be around £15-20 quid that's for decent sealant."

"If you want the old silicon removed you can get stuff that helps. It depends on the shower tray but with parts and labour between £65-£75."
Answered on 6th Dec 2019 - Member since Aug 2019 - report"Hi, cutting out the old silicone will take the bulk of the time.
Cost about £45 pounds."
"If you call someone out just for that job, £20+. If you combined it with another job you wouldn’t be charged."
Answered on 25th Nov 2019 - Member since Aug 2018 - report"Depends if the old silicone needs cutting out, then it will increase the cost. But for what you have asked I would charge around £70 - £85 with the materials included."
