Signs you need bath resealing in Bourne End
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Look out for any of the following:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Unsealed corners
Before you book anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Bourne End. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Common questions in Bourne End
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you work in Bourne End?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Bourne End from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
