How we handle bath resealing in Mockbeggar
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and old sealant that looks dirty, we can typically put it right, on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Mockbeggar: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Mockbeggar?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including Mockbeggar. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
