West Hougham: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CT15 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Give the seal a regular clean
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What we are called out for in West Hougham
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Gaps in the seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Unsealed corners
Comparing quotes
- Who turns up on the day
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
