- An untidy old seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black spots in the silicone
How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How we handle bath resealing in Cliff
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When to call us in Cliff
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
- A messy previous reseal
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What prep work is covered

Advice
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Landlord and trade work in Cliff
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Open a window after bathing
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
