We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can

- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners

FAQs for Tugby
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Leicestershire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
How long does resealing take?
Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you come to Tugby?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Tugby for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What bath resealing costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
