Bath resealing in Abbots Ripton without replacing anything
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and mould you can’t clean out, we can usually put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What affects the price in Abbots Ripton
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Open a window after bathing
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Abbots Ripton: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
