Bath resealing in Kelston without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: 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 sealant that’s split or lifting and a messy previous reseal, we can generally put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What bath resealing costs
There’s no charge for travel to Kelston. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
The price 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 pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Kelston, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

FAQs for Kelston
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you come to Kelston?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Kelston. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How long before I can shower?
Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Kelston included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
