Landlord and trade work in Shenton
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Bath resealing in Shenton without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about black spots in the silicone and an untidy old seal.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repairs by material
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.

Resealing in Shenton: why it matters
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Let steam out after showers
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Questions from Shenton
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Shenton included. Travel is included in the price.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Are there extra charges for Shenton?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
