Bath Resealing in East Garston
Our repair technicians come to East Garston for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
How we handle bath resealing in East Garston
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s damp near the bath and an untidy old seal, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
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 normally the cheaper route.

Questions from East Garston
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your RG17 postcode.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
