How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
About our bath resealing in Cove
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and sealant that’s split or lifting, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Cove and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works
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 around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Give the seal a regular clean
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Your questions about bath resealing in Cove

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
