How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TF9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the joints dry
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Your questions about bath resealing in Hales
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
How long does a reseal take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A flexing bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, tidy-up included.
- 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.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders
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.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Signs you need bath resealing in Hales
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
- Stained silicone

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
