DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common questions in Goodmayes

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep the joints dry

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to Goodmayes. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Goodmayes as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
