About our bath resealing in East Law
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths, and common reasons people contact us are unsealed corners and an untidy old seal.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in East Law as everywhere else we work.

- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

- Have a window or extractor fan available

How do I get a price for bath resealing in East Law?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you come to East Law?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to East Law. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Why it’s worth resealing in East Law
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Same prices wherever you are
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

- Hidden water damage
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
