About our bath resealing in Clifton
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
FAQs for Clifton
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your DE6 postcode.
Do you work in Clifton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Clifton and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
