About our bath resealing in Bedford
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and black mould in the sealant.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

FAQs for Bedford
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Are there extra charges for Bedford?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you work in Bedford?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Bedford from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Bedford, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Signs you need bath resealing in Bedford
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Leaks at the edges
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What preparation is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- How soon you can use it again
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Bedford, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
