DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

What else we do in Reading Street
How we price bath resealing
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Resealing in Reading Street: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Reading Street. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No need to remove anything
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

What we’re called out for in Reading Street
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps by the taps

How long does a reseal take?

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Let steam out after showers
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
