About our bath resealing in Rhodes Minnis
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, in basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Rhodes Minnis as everywhere else we work.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use the extractor fan
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Rhodes Minnis: your questions answered

What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you work in Rhodes Minnis?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Rhodes Minnis. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
