About our bath resealing in Orpington
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Orpington
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What we’re called out for in Orpington
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps in the seal
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
