Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Affetside. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
See our prices page.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Questions from Affetside
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
