What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Framsden. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Our hiring checklist

Questions from Framsden

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs 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 quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
