What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Common questions in Steeple Barton
How much does bath resealing cost in Steeple Barton?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are there extra charges for Steeple Barton?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How long before I can shower?
Typically after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

What bath resealing costs
There is no charge for travel to Steeple Barton. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Resealing in Steeple Barton: why it matters

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 will not last.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
