The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

How we handle bath resealing in Foston
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are black spots in the silicone and an untidy old seal.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Foston as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What we cannot put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Work done at your home or business

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Foston: your questions answered
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you need bath resealing in Foston?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- A messy previous reseal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
