Bath resealing in Hempstead, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and water getting behind the bath or tray, across kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hempstead and across Medway.

What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours, tidy-up included.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote.
Resealing in Hempstead: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in Hempstead
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
- Let steam out after showers
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
When to call us in Hempstead

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
