Bath resealing at your home in Shenley
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 gaps by the taps and a messy previous reseal, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Shenley
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Why it’s worth resealing in Shenley
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Everything repaired in place

How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Shenley: your questions answered
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you cover Shenley?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Shenley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, 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.
Landlord and trade work in Shenley
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shenley use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
