Bath resealing in Bradfield Combust without replacing anything
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We’re often asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and damp near the bath, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Bradfield Combust and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in Bradfield Combust
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Advice
Questions from Bradfield Combust
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Normally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Signs you need bath resealing in Bradfield Combust
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, 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.
