DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How we handle bath resealing in Barmpton
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What else we do in Barmpton
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can

Related advice
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A flexing bath

Materials we repair
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
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.
