Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Bath resealing in Preston Wynne, done in place
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and unsealed corners.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Preston Wynne and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Movement in the bath or tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes around two hours.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
