How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Why it’s worth resealing in Brickhouses
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. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Keep the joints dry
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Related advice
Do you need bath resealing in Brickhouses?
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

- Black spots in the silicone

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Common questions in Brickhouses
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CW11 postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How long does resealing take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
