About our bath resealing in Bixley
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths, and people most often call us about an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Bixley: your questions answered
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How much does bath resealing cost in Bixley?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your IP3 postcode.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the area is dry

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep the joints dry
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What affects the price in Bixley
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Signs you need bath resealing in Bixley
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Stained silicone
