Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

About our bath resealing in Greenhow

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can help.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Greenhow: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Greenhow

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Greenhow use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Resealing in Greenhow: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Greenhow. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
