- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

About our bath resealing in Hatfield Heath
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hatfield Heath as everywhere else we work.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Do you need bath resealing in Hatfield Heath?
Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
Look out for any of the following:
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Stained silicone
Before booking anyone
- How your room will be protected
- How the colour is matched
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Hatfield Heath, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hatfield Heath: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
