When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
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
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you are in Farewell and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Signs you need bath resealing in Farewell
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- A messy previous reseal
- Sealant that’s split or lifting

Your questions about bath resealing in Farewell
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
