About our bath resealing in Arleston
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are an untidy old seal and silicone coming away from the tiles.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
What else we do in Arleston
Do you need bath resealing in Arleston?
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
What affects the price in Arleston
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Common questions in Arleston
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price 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 pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
