We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bedford Borough and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Bath resealing in Keeley Green, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and silicone smeared on tiles, in basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Keeley Green

  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Keeley Green questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Usually because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What we’re called out for in Keeley Green

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Common reasons people in Keeley Green contact us are:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How to look after the finish
  • What preparation is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Keeley Green

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
