Bath resealing in Boverton, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common questions in Boverton
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the seal a regular clean
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
