Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Your questions about bath resealing in Fyfield
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What bath resealing costs
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
