The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done 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.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park

FAQs for St Luke's
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you work in St Luke's?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to St Luke's. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Landlords, agents and businesses in St Luke's
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Open a window after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Store bottles on a shelf
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Resealing in St Luke's: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One price list for the whole UK
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Signs you need bath resealing in St Luke's
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Unsealed corners
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether a trained technician does the job
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
