Bath Resealing in Garras
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Garras, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Stained silicone
- An untidy old seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
What bath resealing costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Garras. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Garras, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How we handle bath resealing in Garras
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths, and common reasons people contact us are black spots in the silicone and missing sealant behind the taps.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Why it’s worth resealing in Garras
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Why us?
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Garras: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you come to Garras?
We do. We send a technician to Garras for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
