Questions from Plumstead
How much does bath resealing cost in Plumstead?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you cover Plumstead?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Plumstead for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Landlord and trade work in Plumstead
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Plumstead as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
