- 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.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Bath resealing in Bojewyan without replacing anything
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s unsealed corners and mould you can’t clean out, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Bojewyan, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
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.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Common problems we fix in Bojewyan
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What to look for in a quote
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the colour is matched

What does bath resealing cost?

How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Why it’s worth resealing in Bojewyan
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. 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’re paying for.
