Ravensden: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you cover the whole of Bedford Borough?
Everywhere in the UK, Ravensden included. Travel is included in the price.

About our bath resealing in Ravensden
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bedford Borough.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For a price in Ravensden, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What a repair cannot fix

- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Ravensden
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Common problems we fix in Ravensden
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- Stained silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
- Sealant that is split or lifting
