When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Abbey Hills as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your OL4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Common questions in Abbey Hills
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are there extra charges for Abbey Hills?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How much does bath resealing cost in Abbey Hills?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

- Gaps in the seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- A messy previous reseal
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Open a window after bathing
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
