The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pevensey Bay. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Pevensey Bay: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pevensey Bay as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
