What affects the price in Westley Bottom
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Bath resealing at your home in Westley Bottom
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are an untidy old seal and mould you can’t clean out.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Westley Bottom and across Cambridgeshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Keep the joints dry
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Your questions about bath resealing in Westley Bottom
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How long will it take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
