Landlords, agents and businesses in Woodford

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Bath resealing in Woodford, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our technicians work on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are unsealed corners and a messy previous reseal.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Woodford and across Gloucestershire.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Woodford: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you come to Woodford?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Woodford. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Why it’s worth resealing in Woodford
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What affects the price in Woodford
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your GL13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
