About our bath resealing in Church Hill
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most often call us about missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Church Hill as everywhere else we work.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What affects the price in Church Hill
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your EH10 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
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.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Church Hill?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
