Questions from Mackworth
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Mackworth?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A flexing bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Use the extractor fan
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any 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, taps included.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

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.
