Bath resealing in Walgrave without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s stained silicone and unsealed corners, we can usually put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Walgrave
Letting agents often send us photos 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.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Why reseal now?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Walgrave. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Walgrave: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
