Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
About our bath resealing in West Challow
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people contact us are missing sealant behind the taps and old sealant that looks dirty.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in West Challow and across Oxfordshire.

Questions from West Challow
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in West Challow?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OX12 postcode.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Challow
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Challow as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
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 to keep costs down.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
