About our bath resealing in Garswood
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and gaps in the seal, we can help, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we’re called out for in Garswood
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- An untidy old seal
- Stained silicone

Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Everything repaired in place
- Work done at your home or business
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
See our pricing.
What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Landlord and trade work in Garswood
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Garswood use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Your questions about bath resealing in Garswood
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
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.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
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. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover Garswood?
We do. We send a technician to Garswood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
