Questions from Bedlar's Green
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Do you cover Bedlar's Green?
We do. We send a technician to Bedlar's Green for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How long does a reseal take?
Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Bath resealing in Bedlar's Green, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We are often asked to fix gaps by the taps and mould you can’t clean out, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When to call us in Bedlar's Green
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Look out for any of the following:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- An untidy old seal
Before booking anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Aftercare advice
- How your room will be protected
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
