Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Adber. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
What else we do in Adber
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- The material
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.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Advice
FAQs for Adber
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Signs you need bath resealing in Adber
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Look out for any of the following:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps
- Damp near the bath
- Black spots in the silicone
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- What prep work is covered
