Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common questions in Botcheston
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your LE9 postcode.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long before I can shower?
Generally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What affects the price in Botcheston
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
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.

When to call us in Botcheston
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps by the taps
Before you book anyone
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
