About our bath resealing in Kimpton
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our technicians work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What bath resealing costs
There’s no area surcharge for Kimpton. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
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.

Kimpton: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Do you cover Kimpton?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Kimpton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Why it’s worth resealing in Kimpton
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
