Hungerford questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How long does resealing take?
Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Are there extra charges for Hungerford?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you cover Hungerford?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Hungerford and the rest of West Berkshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Hungerford included. There is no extra charge for travel.

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.

- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A flexing bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Signs you need bath resealing in Hungerford
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
- Silicone smeared on tiles
