Bath Resealing for Oxted homes
Bath resealing in and around Oxted: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
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’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Bath resealing in Oxted without replacing anything
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about an untidy old seal and gaps by the taps.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Oxted
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. 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 your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
When to call us in Oxted
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps by the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
- Sealant that is split or lifting

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
