Questions from Alpheton
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Do you cover Alpheton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Alpheton. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Alpheton included. There is no extra charge for travel.
How we handle bath resealing in Alpheton
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Our technicians work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are stained silicone and an untidy old seal.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Alpheton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Why it’s worth resealing in Alpheton
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
If you are in Alpheton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Common problems we fix in Alpheton
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- If travel is included in the price
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
