Bath resealing in Binsey, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can help.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

- 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.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How we price bath resealing
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Binsey: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Why it’s worth resealing in Binsey
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
