How we handle bath resealing in Frittenden
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Frittenden as everywhere else we work.

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hollow or loose tiles

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Most customers in Frittenden get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep bottles off the joints
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Common questions in Frittenden
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover Frittenden?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Frittenden. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
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 without visiting.
