DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Your questions about bath resealing in Patching
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
How long will it take?
Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Why reseal now?
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. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Patching. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- No need to remove anything
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
See our pricing.
How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you’re in Patching and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
