About our bath resealing in Calthorpe Street
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for leaks at the edges and silicone smeared on tiles, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Your questions about bath resealing in Calthorpe Street
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How much does bath resealing cost in Calthorpe Street?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you work in Calthorpe Street?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Calthorpe Street for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Open a window after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Prices and what affects them
There is no area surcharge for Calthorpe Street. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Calthorpe Street
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
