Bath resealing in Ovenden Wood without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Common call-outs are for old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal, across shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Ovenden Wood and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
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.
Why it’s worth resealing in Ovenden Wood
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
When to call us in Ovenden Wood
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Look out for these signs:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who turns up on the day
- What protection goes down before work starts
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Common questions in Ovenden Wood
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
