How we handle bath resealing in Morchard Bishop
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about leaks at the edges and silicone coming away from the tiles.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How we price bath resealing
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

FAQs for Morchard Bishop
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. 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.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
