DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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, then guarantee it for a year.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Backwell: your questions answered
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Landlord and trade work in Backwell
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep the joints dry
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
