Bath resealing in Clipstone without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for discoloured, yellow sealant and silicone smeared on tiles, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Clipstone and across Central Bedfordshire.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Resealing in Clipstone: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What else we do in Clipstone
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Questions from Clipstone
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Central Bedfordshire.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
