Bath resealing in Folly Gate, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We are frequently asked to fix stained silicone and gaps by the taps, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Air the room after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Common questions in Folly Gate
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you work in Folly Gate?
We do. Technicians travel to Folly Gate from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Folly Gate is covered. Prices do not change with location.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Folly Gate, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

- Gaps by the taps
- Leaks at the edges
What to look for in a quote
