Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Bath resealing in Cantley without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and gaps by the taps.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Advice
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Let steam out after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Common questions in Cantley
How long does silicone take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Are there extra charges for Cantley?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

There’s no charge for travel to Cantley. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
