DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
About our bath resealing in Old Town
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include stained silicone and black mould in the sealant, across baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Old Town and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
How much does bath resealing cost in Old Town?

Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Why it’s worth resealing in Old Town
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What bath resealing costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Old Town. The price depends on:
- The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
