Bath resealing in Whipsnade without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone smeared on tiles.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Whipsnade: your questions answered
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you come to Whipsnade?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Whipsnade for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Whipsnade
Letting agents often send us photos 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.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LU6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
