Bath resealing in Long Thurlow without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and people most often call us about leaks at the edges and silicone coming away from the tiles.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Long Thurlow
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

What else we do in Long Thurlow
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Are there extra charges for Long Thurlow?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
How it works

- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
