Questions from Monkswood
How much does bath resealing cost in Monkswood?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you work in Monkswood?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Monkswood and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

What bath resealing costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Monkswood. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
If you are in Monkswood and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Air the room after use
- Keep the joints dry
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
