Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and discoloured, yellow sealant.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- 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, taps included.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What bath resealing costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Most clients in Redford get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

FAQs for Redford
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you come to Redford?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Redford and the rest of West Sussex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Redford
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

When a repair isn’t the answer

- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
