What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How we price bath resealing

We don’t charge extra for travel to Evington. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Let steam out after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Evington questions

Do you work in Evington?

We do. Technicians travel to Evington from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE5 postcode.

How long does resealing take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Evington included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Evington

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Evington use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Evington, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Evington

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Comparing quotes

  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Evington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
