Bath resealing in Rewe without replacing anything
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours. We regularly repair baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are black spots in the silicone and gaps by the taps.

Your questions about bath resealing in Rewe
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Common problems we fix in Rewe
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
