How we handle bath resealing in Benchill
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include gaps by the taps and damp near the bath, across basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours. We leave the room clean.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Let steam out after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Common problems we fix in Benchill
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A messy previous reseal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Stained silicone
- Unsealed corners
Before you book anyone
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if they find more damage
