Signs you need bath resealing in Hastings Hill
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair

- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
How we price bath resealing
There is no charge for travel to Hastings Hill. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours. We leave the room clean.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
