Common questions in Padbury
Is it safe with children and pets around?
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.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Do you work in Padbury?
We do. Technicians travel to Padbury from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Bath resealing at your home in Padbury
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and damp near the bath, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Padbury use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we’re called out for in Padbury
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Stained silicone
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps by the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How to look after the finish
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Padbury. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price

Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
