Bath resealing in Primrose 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 black spots in the silicone and a messy previous reseal, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Signs you need bath resealing in Primrose
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- Stained silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps in the seal

Primrose: your questions answered
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Generally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the price in Primrose
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- 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 to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Why it’s worth resealing in Primrose
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
