What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Orlestone. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Orlestone questions
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you come to Orlestone?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Orlestone. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Orlestone.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Orlestone
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Orlestone use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Keep the joints dry
- Air the room after use
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Common problems we fix in Orlestone
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Damp near the bath
- A messy previous reseal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
