About our bath resealing in Monkton Combe
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and black spots in the silicone.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Resealing in Monkton Combe: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We leave the room as we found it
- Everything repaired in place

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Prices and what affects them
We don’t charge extra for travel to Monkton Combe. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Your questions about bath resealing in Monkton Combe
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Leaks at the edges

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
