Bath resealing in Poslingford, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal, we can help.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Do you need bath resealing in Poslingford?
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Stained silicone
- Mould you can’t clean out

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Poslingford questions
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Air the room after use
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, 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. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Poslingford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
