Babbington questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Do you cover Babbington?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Babbington and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Bath resealing in Babbington, done in place
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about mould you can’t clean out and gaps in the seal.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take around two hours.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
For a price in Babbington, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What else we do in Babbington
When to call us in Babbington
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Look out for these signs:
- A messy previous reseal
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps in the seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
