Bath resealing at your home in Box Hill
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and leaks at the edges, in basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Box Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Questions from Box Hill
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Box Hill?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
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 quote the same day in most cases.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
