Your questions about bath resealing in Mackerye End
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You will get the curing time from us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What bath resealing costs
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- The material
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re 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.
