When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in South Bank, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
