- Stained silicone
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Let steam out after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
About our bath resealing in Nethertown
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with silicone coming away from the tiles and damp near the bath, we can help, on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hidden water damage
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Your questions about bath resealing in Nethertown
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
