Trusted bath resealing in Eddington

What bath resealing costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from photos so you do not 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, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Bath resealing in Eddington without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you are dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and gaps by the taps, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units

FAQs for Eddington

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you come to Eddington?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Eddington for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How much does bath resealing cost in Eddington?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CT6 postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Landlord and trade work in Eddington

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
