How we handle bath resealing in Pinn
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are stained silicone and mould you can’t clean out.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Also in Pinn
Your questions about bath resealing in Pinn
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How much does bath resealing cost in Pinn?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your EX10 postcode.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlord and trade work in Pinn
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Pinn
There is no area surcharge for Pinn. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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 quote, not a guess.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
