About our bath resealing in High Halstow
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are stained silicone and missing sealant behind the taps.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

FAQs for High Halstow
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
When to call us in High Halstow
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- An untidy old seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
Before you book anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
What affects the price in High Halstow
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most clients in High Halstow get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
