Bath resealing at your home in Hawton
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths, and common reasons people contact us are gaps in the seal and old sealant that looks dirty.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hawton and across Nottinghamshire.

Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Questions from Hawton
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
How long before I can shower?
Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Hawton and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A flexing bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

What affects the price in Hawton
We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
