Bath Resealing in Pool Quay
Local bath resealing for Pool Quay: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps in the seal
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.
Bath resealing in Pool Quay without replacing anything
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and mould you can’t clean out, we can generally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, tidy-up included.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can

Resealing in Pool Quay: why it matters
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Pool Quay
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles on a shelf
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
