When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Lea Valley: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Do you need bath resealing in Lea Valley?
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Gaps by the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- We leave the room as we found it

How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- 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
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
