Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps by the taps
- Leaks at the edges
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included

Bath resealing in Greatford without replacing anything
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are leaks at the edges and old sealant that looks dirty.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Greatford questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Greatford?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.
How we price bath resealing
We don’t charge extra for travel to Greatford. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Why it’s worth resealing in Greatford
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. 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.
