How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Ruxley, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
About our bath resealing in Ruxley
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Questions from Ruxley
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us, typically around a day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Are there extra charges for Ruxley?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
What we are called out for in Ruxley
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long it needs to cure
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
