Common questions in Coombe
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Bath resealing in Coombe without replacing anything
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What else we do in Coombe
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Hidden water damage
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Air the room after use
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Coombe
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
What affects the price in Coombe
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
