Bath resealing in Longwood without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms, and people most often call us about black spots in the silicone and silicone smeared on tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Longwood as everywhere else we work.

What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Longwood questions
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Common problems we fix in Longwood
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
