Questions from Telham
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your TN33 postcode.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Air the room after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What bath resealing costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Telham. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Do you need bath resealing in Telham?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Mould you can’t clean out
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
