What bath resealing costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Bath resealing in Chapels, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and water getting behind the bath or tray, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chapels as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Hidden water damage
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.

When to call us in Chapels
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether a trained technician does the job

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
