Bath resealing in Burrough End without replacing anything
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include sealant that’s split or lifting and old sealant that looks dirty, in baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Advice
Why it’s worth resealing in Burrough End
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One-year guarantee on every repair
Read our pricing.
What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Details of any past repairs
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
