Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Akebar: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
How much does bath resealing cost in Akebar?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DL8 postcode.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What affects the price in Akebar
We charge the same across the UK, including Akebar. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Akebar. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Same prices wherever you are

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
When to call us in Akebar
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Stained silicone
- Unsealed corners
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Leaks at the edges
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Akebar, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
