How we price bath resealing
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to around two hours, including clearing up.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your HU14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Questions from Melton
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you cover Melton?
We do. Technicians travel to Melton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Common problems we fix in Melton
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Silicone coming away from the tiles

- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether they match the colour on site

Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
