Bath resealing in Bogle, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We’re frequently asked to fix mould you can’t clean out and water getting behind the bath or tray, across wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What we are called out for in Bogle
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Gaps by the taps
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- An untidy old seal
- Stained silicone
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Open a window after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Landlord and trade work in Bogle
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure 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, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Bogle
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
