Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Store bottles on a shelf
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Halfway Houses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
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, to open the joint fully.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price

Questions from Halfway Houses
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

How we price bath resealing
There’s no area surcharge for Halfway Houses. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most clients in Halfway Houses get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
