Etchingham questions
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 I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Etchingham?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Bath resealing in Etchingham without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for silicone smeared on tiles and black mould in the sealant, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Sinks and worktops

Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: 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.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
