Bath resealing at your home in Chevington
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and mould you can’t clean out, in kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Chevington as everywhere else we work.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Resealing in Chevington: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area
Take a look at our prices page.
What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Landlord and trade work in Chevington
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
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.
Your questions about bath resealing in Chevington
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How long does resealing take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
