Questions from Bachelor's Bump
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Is resealing worth it?

What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you don’t 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’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

What we’re called out for in Bachelor's Bump
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
Questions to ask before you book
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What preparation is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried 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.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
