Bath resealing at your home in Markham Vale
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and damp near the bath, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

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.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Markham Vale, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Common problems we fix in Markham Vale
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Clients normally contact us about:
- An untidy old seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
Before booking anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Aftercare advice
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Common questions in Markham Vale
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How much does bath resealing cost in Markham Vale?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Are there extra charges for Markham Vale?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
