Bath resealing in Ellington, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We’re frequently asked to fix black mould in the sealant and discoloured, yellow sealant, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why it’s worth resealing in Ellington
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow around two hours.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- 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
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

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. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What affects the price in Ellington
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ellington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most customers in Ellington get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlord and trade work in Ellington
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common questions in Ellington
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you come to Ellington?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ellington from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Let steam out after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
