Bath resealing in Abbey Field, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our technicians work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone coming away from the tiles.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common problems we fix in Abbey Field
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Gaps by the taps
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles

What affects the price in Abbey Field
We don’t charge extra for travel to Abbey Field. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Your questions about bath resealing in Abbey Field
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover Abbey Field?
We do. Technicians travel to Abbey Field from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
