How we price bath resealing
We do not charge extra for travel to Bromley Cross. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Bath resealing in Bromley Cross, done in place
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you’re dealing with a messy previous reseal and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can normally put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Open a window after bathing
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What else we do in Bromley Cross
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A flexing bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Resealing in Bromley Cross: why it matters
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. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bromley Cross. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Bromley Cross questions
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Bromley Cross is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
