Bath resealing at your home in Cotmanhay
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Whether it’s damp near the bath and an untidy old seal, we can normally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Cotmanhay, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
