Bath resealing at your home in Congelow
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and gaps by the taps, we can generally put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Why it’s worth resealing in Congelow
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price bath resealing
There’s no charge for travel to Congelow. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Congelow: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Look out for any of the following:
- Stained silicone
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Damp near the bath

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Congelow use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
