About our bath resealing in Hales Place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you’re dealing with unsealed corners and stained silicone, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What bath resealing costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, 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.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We leave the room as we found it

Do you need bath resealing in Hales Place?
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
The things clients typically mention when they call are:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
- Black spots in the silicone
- An untidy old seal
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site
Landlord and trade work in Hales Place
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
