Why it’s worth resealing in Cowley
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Cowley?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
What happens after I send photos?

Other services in Cowley
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Do you need bath resealing in Cowley?
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- A messy previous reseal
- Black mould in the sealant
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What preparation is included
Landlord and trade work in Cowley
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
What affects the price in Cowley
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the area is dry
