Bath resealing in Saxelbye, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We are often asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and damp near the bath, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Saxelbye: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Saxelbye is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Saxelbye
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What bath resealing costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you don’t 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.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Signs you need bath resealing in Saxelbye
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps in the seal
- Black spots in the silicone
- Unsealed corners
Comparing quotes
- If travel is included in the price
- How to care for the finish
- Who turns up on the day
- How changes to the job are handled
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What else we do in Saxelbye
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
