How we handle bath resealing in Hewish
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for silicone coming away from the tiles and leaks at the edges, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Somerset.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep the joints dry
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Common questions in Hewish
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Hewish?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your BS24 postcode.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Do you need bath resealing in Hewish?
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- 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, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
