Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Your questions about bath resealing in Braithwell
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How long will it take?
Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How much does bath resealing cost in Braithwell?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Landlord and trade work in Braithwell
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
How we price bath resealing
We do not charge extra for travel to Braithwell. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

Do you need bath resealing in Braithwell?
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Gaps by the taps
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Old sealant that looks dirty
Before booking anyone
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
