Bath resealing at your home in Northacre
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our repair technicians work on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about damp near the bath and silicone coming away from the tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Northacre as everywhere else we work.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Northacre: your questions answered
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Northacre?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Hidden water damage
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
