About our bath resealing in Hipswell
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with silicone coming away from the tiles and a messy previous reseal, we can usually put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Resealing in Hipswell: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Everything repaired in place
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Generally one visit, start to finish

Hipswell questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Hipswell
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What affects the price in Hipswell
There is no charge for travel to Hipswell. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hipswell. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairs by material
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.
