About our bath resealing in Hinton St George
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with gaps by the taps and leaks at the edges, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price bath resealing
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What else we do in Hinton St George
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hinton St George
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hinton St George use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Questions from Hinton St George

How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
