Bath resealing in Amersham, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges, we can help.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
What affects the price in Amersham
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Amersham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What else we do in Amersham
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Amersham: your questions answered
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Common problems we fix in Amersham
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Gaps in the seal
- Stained silicone
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- If travel is included in the price
- What preparation is included
- When it can be used again
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Dry the seal after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
