Bath resealing at your home in Bradley Cross
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray, across baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.

What else we do in Bradley Cross
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Bradley Cross, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Why it’s worth resealing in Bradley Cross
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What affects the price in Bradley Cross
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Bradley Cross get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BS27 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you come to Bradley Cross?
