Bath Resealing for West Farleigh homes
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in West Farleigh, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps in the seal
- A messy previous reseal
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we handle bath resealing in West Farleigh
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for water getting behind the bath or tray and discoloured, yellow sealant, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in West Farleigh and across Kent.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units

How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
If you’re in West Farleigh and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we are called out for in West Farleigh

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Mould you cannot clean out
- A messy previous reseal
- Stained silicone
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- If travel is included in the price
- When it can be used again
- What happens if they find more damage
Your questions about bath resealing in West Farleigh
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in West Farleigh?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you cover West Farleigh?
We do. Technicians travel to West Farleigh from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
