About our bath resealing in Great Shefford
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. If you’re dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can help, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually 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.

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How much does bath resealing cost in Great Shefford?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, 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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Shefford
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in West Berkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
