Common questions in Medbourne
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Medbourne?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Bath resealing in Medbourne without replacing anything
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps in the seal and unsealed corners.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Medbourne as everywhere else we work.

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- 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
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price

What affects the price in Medbourne
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
