About our bath resealing in Ringshall
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and old sealant that looks dirty, we can normally put it right.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Common questions in Ringshall
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Ringshall. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
Resealing in Ringshall: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically 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.
Why Ringshall customers choose us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A fixed quote before you book
- Nothing taken out or refitted

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep the joints dry
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Open a window after bathing
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
