About our bath resealing in Smeeth
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps, we can normally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Smeeth: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Signs you need bath resealing in Smeeth
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A flexing bath
- Hidden water damage
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.

Landlord and trade work in Smeeth
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What bath resealing costs
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
