Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Why it’s worth resealing in Imeraval
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 typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
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.
Questions from Imeraval
How long will it take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Are there extra charges for Imeraval?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How much does bath resealing cost in Imeraval?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
