- Water getting behind the bath or tray
How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
About our bath resealing in Harpur Hill
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and sealant that’s split or lifting, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Signs you need bath resealing in Harpur Hill
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Mould you can’t clean out
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

FAQs for Harpur Hill
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Harpur Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
