Bath resealing at your home in Copster Green
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Do you need bath resealing in Copster Green?
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Gaps in the seal
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Gaps by the taps

Landlord and trade work in Copster Green
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common questions in Copster Green
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What affects the price in Copster Green
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Copster Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
