Trusted bath resealing in Stotfold Common

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Bath resealing in Stotfold Common without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s mould you can’t clean out and silicone smeared on tiles, we can typically put it right.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Signs you need bath resealing in Stotfold Common

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Unsealed corners

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it

When a repair is not the answer

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
