Your questions about bath resealing in Lashenden
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
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 redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Bath resealing at your home in Lashenden
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s stained silicone and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

What we are called out for in Lashenden
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How your room will be protected
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Open a window after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price

Prices and what affects them
There is no area surcharge for Lashenden. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Resealing in Lashenden: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
