FAQs for Wood End
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Wood End and the rest of Bedford Borough. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How we handle bath resealing in Wood End
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include silicone smeared on tiles and stained silicone, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. There are no surprise 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.

Landlord and trade work in Wood End

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Common problems we fix in Wood End
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
