Bath resealing at your home in Pleck
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you are dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and unsealed corners, we can generally put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Pleck as everywhere else we work.

What bath resealing costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Pleck, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Pleck: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Are there extra charges for Pleck?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Pleck, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hidden water damage

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Use the extractor fan
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
