Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Common questions in Barcombe Mills
How much does bath resealing cost in Barcombe Mills?
We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Advice
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Movement in the bath or tray

Do you need bath resealing in Barcombe Mills?
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Missing sealant behind the taps
What your quote should include

- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What bath resealing costs
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
