Bath resealing in Netherthird without replacing anything
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and a messy previous reseal.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Netherthird and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

We charge the same across the UK, including Netherthird. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Netherthird. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
Most clients in Netherthird get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- 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, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

FAQs for Netherthird
