- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Leaks at the edges
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Bath resealing in Bapton without replacing anything
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and sealant that’s split or lifting, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bapton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Do you need bath resealing in Bapton?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Leaks at the edges

Prices and what affects them
We don’t charge extra for travel to Bapton. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Your questions about bath resealing in Bapton
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Bapton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bapton and the rest of Wiltshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Bapton?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bapton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
