Bath Resealing in Lower Caversham
Fixed-price bath resealing in Lower Caversham and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Unsealed corners
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What else we do in Lower Caversham
What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
FAQs for Lower Caversham
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Lower Caversham.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Air the room after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
