Bath Resealing for Alpington homes
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Alpington, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Unsealed corners
- Black mould in the sealant
What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Bath resealing at your home in Alpington
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath resealing in Alpington?
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Stained silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black mould in the sealant

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

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
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Questions from Alpington
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
