Bath resealing at your home in Sands
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you’re dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and silicone smeared on tiles, we can normally put it right, on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sands as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?
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 normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
When to call us in Sands
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal
- A messy previous reseal

Sands: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
How much does bath resealing cost in Sands?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Let steam out after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What else we do in Sands
How we price bath resealing
We don’t charge extra for travel to Sands. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Resealing in Sands: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Work done at your home or business
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
