Common questions in Reach
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How much does bath resealing cost in Reach?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Bath resealing in Reach without replacing anything
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. If you are dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and stained silicone, we can typically put it right, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Resealing in Reach: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- No need to remove anything

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Prices and what affects them
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Reach, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
