Resealing in Ovingdean: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ovingdean as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ovingdean. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Common questions in Ovingdean
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Are there extra charges for Ovingdean?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Signs you need bath resealing in Ovingdean
Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps in the seal
- Black mould in the sealant

- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What preparation is included
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
