About our bath resealing in California
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are leaks at the edges and silicone coming away from the tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in California as everywhere else we work.

What else we do in California
Do you need bath resealing in California?
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Questions to ask before booking
- How to care for the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why it’s worth resealing in California
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
