Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Bath resealing at your home in Salehurst
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and damp near the bath, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Somewhere like Salehurst, older buildings can move slightly, and that splits sealant. We fill the bath before sealing so the joint lasts.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Salehurst, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Questions from Salehurst
I let a flat near Robertsbridge station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes. We redo the sealant around baths and showers between tenancies for landlords and letting agents, and we can quote for several properties together.
Do you come out to small places like Salehurst?
Of course; we work in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Salehurst?
We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we tidy up before we leave.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Why reseal now?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. In an older home in a village like Salehurst, replacing a bath or shower can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result. In a village or hamlet like Salehurst, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price

Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Baths

Common problems we fix in Salehurst
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- An untidy old seal
- Damp near the bath
- Black mould in the sealant
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you care for a building such as Salehurst Church of England Primary School, changing rooms and washrooms can be repaired in place too.
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
