Tansley: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Tansley. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Tansley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Signs you need bath resealing in Tansley
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Stained silicone
- Leaks at the edges
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
