What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Bath resealing in East Challow, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for black spots in the silicone and old sealant that looks dirty, across basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
When to call us in East Challow
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
Comparing quotes
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How to look after the finish
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Questions from East Challow
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you come to East Challow?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to East Challow and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in East Challow?
We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OX12 postcode.
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Resealing in East Challow: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Same prices wherever you are
- One visit for most repairs
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What affects the price in East Challow
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
