What else we do in Buxhall Fen Street
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What we are called out for in Buxhall Fen Street
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Your questions about bath resealing in Buxhall Fen Street
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep the joints dry
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
