Westwood: your questions answered
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Peterborough, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Bath resealing in Westwood, done in place
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat 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. We work on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Do you need bath resealing in Westwood?
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Gaps by the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps in the seal
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What preparation is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often 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 anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage

What affects the price in Westwood
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
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Westwood. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Let steam out after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Why it’s worth resealing in Westwood
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
