Bath resealing in Rush Green, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you are dealing with discoloured, yellow sealant and leaks at the edges, we can help, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When to call us in Rush Green
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. 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.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rush Green as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep the joints dry
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
