How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bapchild. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Bapchild, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Is the work guaranteed?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When a repair is not the answer
