Common questions in Forward Green
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you need bath resealing in Forward Green?
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

How we price bath resealing
We don’t charge extra for travel to Forward Green. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IP14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. 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, a professional repair is worth it.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
