How we handle bath resealing in Borgh
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We’re frequently asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal, in baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Borgh as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What affects the price in Borgh
You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Borgh questions
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
