Bath resealing at your home in Chelsea
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s unsealed corners and mould you can’t clean out, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Do you need bath resealing in Chelsea?
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
What your quote should include

When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths

What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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 price, not a guess.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Chelsea: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Chelsea?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
More services for Chelsea
What your bath or shower is made of matters
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.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Chelsea
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
