Why it’s worth resealing in East Briscoe
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare

Do you need bath resealing in East Briscoe?
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- Stained silicone
- A messy previous reseal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
- Who turns up on the day
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Open a window after bathing
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in East Briscoe, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Common questions in East Briscoe
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
