How we handle bath resealing in Hele
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Our repair technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are mould you can’t clean out and silicone smeared on tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What bath resealing costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Hele. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- The material
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Hele: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are there extra charges for Hele?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Do you cover the whole of Devon?
The whole UK, including all of Devon. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep the joints dry
- Use the extractor fan
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Why it’s worth resealing in Hele
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
