DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the area is dry

Questions from Langton
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Langton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Do you need bath resealing in Langton?
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Gaps in the seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps by the taps
- Mould you can’t clean out
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the price covers travel
- How your room will be protected
- What preparation is included

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
