Resealing in Backbower: why it matters
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Let steam out after showers
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Backbower. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Common questions in Backbower
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are there extra charges for Backbower?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
