Bath resealing at your home in Heathton
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We’re frequently asked to fix gaps by the taps and mould you can’t clean out, across basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Questions from Heathton
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How much does bath resealing cost in Heathton?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What else we do in Heathton
What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
If you are in Heathton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Signs you need bath resealing in Heathton
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Stained silicone
- A messy previous reseal
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that’s split or lifting

Landlords, agents and businesses in Heathton
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Heathton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Open a window after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
