Bath resealing in Great Chishill, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We are frequently asked to fix leaks at the edges and silicone coming away from the tiles, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Resealing in Great Chishill: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Great Chishill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
What we can’t put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

FAQs for Great Chishill
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
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.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How much does bath resealing cost in Great Chishill?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
