DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
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.

What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
