About our bath resealing in Rigside
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. If you’re dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What bath resealing costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Rigside. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Rigside. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Air the room after use
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. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Common questions in Rigside
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
