Bath resealing in Leagrave, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Leagrave as everywhere else we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Questions from Leagrave
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work in Leagrave?
We do. Technicians travel to Leagrave from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Resealing in Leagrave: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

- Water getting behind the bath or tray

Landlord and trade work in Leagrave
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Leagrave use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What bath resealing costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
