How we handle bath resealing in Rowarth
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We’re frequently asked to fix gaps in the seal and unsealed corners, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Rowarth as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How we price bath resealing
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
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.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
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 quote the same day in most cases.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Rowarth
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Rowarth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
FAQs for Rowarth

Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
