Bath resealing at your home in Nottingham
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you are dealing with a messy previous reseal and gaps by the taps, we can normally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Nottingham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Air the room after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Why it’s worth resealing in Nottingham
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Nottingham
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, typically around a day.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Nottingham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
