About our bath resealing in Catley Lane Head
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, we can normally put it right.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep the joints dry
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Landlord and trade work in Catley Lane Head
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Can I fix it myself?
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
