We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. If you are dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and black spots in the silicone, we can generally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What affects the price in Bulwell
We charge the same across the UK, including Bulwell. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep the joints dry
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
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.

Questions from Bulwell
How much does bath resealing cost in Bulwell?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bulwell.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
