When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
Bath resealing in Fordham, done in place
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What else we do in Fordham
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Fordham questions
Do you cover Fordham?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Fordham for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

What affects the price in Fordham
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- The material
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.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fordham use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
