New Ridley: your questions answered
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We will give you the curing time, normally around a day.
Do you come to New Ridley?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to New Ridley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Bath resealing in New Ridley, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We are often asked to fix gaps in the seal and damp near the bath, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us

What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Prices and what affects them
There is no area surcharge for New Ridley. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- 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 price, not a guess.
