Bath resealing in Slindon without replacing anything
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We are often asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Slindon as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
