About our bath resealing in Marley Hill
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include leaks at the edges and discoloured, yellow sealant, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Marley Hill
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What bath resealing costs
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
