Bath resealing in Childs Hill, done in place
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for sealant that’s split or lifting and an untidy old seal, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Childs Hill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Your questions about bath resealing in Childs Hill
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How long will it take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What affects the price in Childs Hill
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs 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 quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A flexing bath
- Hidden water damage
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Childs Hill use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
