Bath resealing in Bathwick without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people contact us are damp near the bath and silicone smeared on tiles.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
What affects the price in Bathwick
There is no charge for travel to Bathwick. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, 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.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Your questions about bath resealing in Bathwick
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do you work in Bathwick?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Bathwick from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Resealing in Bathwick: why it matters
