About our bath resealing in Chalton
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for leaks at the edges and missing sealant behind the taps, across kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chalton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Chalton: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you work in Chalton?

Are you accredited?

Is it messy?

Is there a guarantee?

Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How long does a reseal take?
Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Let steam out after showers
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Chalton
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
