Bath Resealing in Simonstone
Bath resealing in and around Simonstone: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- A messy previous reseal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How we handle bath resealing in Simonstone
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and silicone smeared on tiles, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Details of any past repairs
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
