How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How we handle bath resealing in Scar Top
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with 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. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone, we can usually put it right.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Why it’s worth resealing in Scar Top
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Landlord and trade work in Scar Top
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Air the room after use
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.
- 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.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
