What affects the price in Bowmans
We charge the same across the UK, including Bowmans. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Bowmans, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How we handle bath resealing in Bowmans
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you’re dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and leaks at the edges, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Bowmans: your questions answered
How much does bath resealing cost in Bowmans?
We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
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.
What areas do you cover?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- 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 toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
