How we handle bath resealing in Lea
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for old sealant that looks dirty and a messy previous reseal, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lea and across Derbyshire.

Common questions in Lea
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you come to Lea?

Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How long does a reseal take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the seal a regular clean
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Do you need bath resealing in Lea?
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- A messy previous reseal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Old sealant that looks dirty

Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One price list for the entire UK
- Rooms protected and left tidy
Read our prices page.
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lea. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
