Bath Resealing for Bason Bridge homes
Bath resealing across Bason Bridge and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Damp near the bath
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Bath resealing in Bason Bridge, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are missing sealant behind the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you’re in Bason Bridge and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use the extractor fan
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep bottles off the joints
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A flexing bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Questions from Bason Bridge
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
