About our bath resealing in Friars Cliff
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. If you’re dealing with an untidy old seal and mould you can’t clean out, we can typically put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Friars Cliff as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BH23 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Signs you need bath resealing in Friars Cliff
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- A messy previous reseal
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps

Friars Cliff: your questions answered
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How long will it take?
Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Do you work in Friars Cliff?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Friars Cliff. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hidden water damage
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Friars Cliff
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Prices and what affects them
You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
