About our bath resealing in Shipton-on-Cherwell
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’re dealing with damp near the bath and stained silicone, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What bath resealing costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Shipton-on-Cherwell. The price depends on:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Why it’s worth resealing in Shipton-on-Cherwell
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- A fixed quote before booking

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What else we do in Shipton-on-Cherwell
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
