Bath Resealing for Caring homes
Local bath resealing for Caring: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
How we handle bath resealing in Caring
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and an untidy old seal.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Caring: your questions answered
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What else we do in Caring
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Caring
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
