Bath resealing across Swindon: what to expect
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We are frequently asked to fix black spots in the silicone and missing sealant behind the taps, in kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
What it costs in Swindon
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
- Open a window after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
FAQs for Swindon
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
