How we price bath resealing
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep the joints dry
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Do you need bath resealing in Henstridge Bowden?
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone coming away from the tiles

Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- 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.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Henstridge Bowden questions
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
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.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
