Questions from West Leake
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
About our bath resealing in West Leake
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and stained silicone, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Why it’s worth resealing in West Leake

What bath resealing costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to West Leake. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Leake use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price

Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures

Do you need bath resealing in West Leake?
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Unsealed corners
- Damp near the bath
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Silicone smeared on tiles
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
