Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Bath resealing in Halford without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Give the seal a regular clean
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What bath resealing costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Halford. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Halford, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
FAQs for Halford
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you come to Halford?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Halford from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
