Bath resealing at your home in Ermine East
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s stained silicone and gaps in the seal, we can usually put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Why reseal now?
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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Signs you need bath resealing in Ermine East
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damp near the bath
- Black spots in the silicone
- An untidy old seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
