How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Southernden. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Bath resealing in Southernden without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you’re dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and black spots in the silicone, we can generally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Why it’s worth resealing in Southernden
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Common questions in Southernden
Do you cover the whole of Kent?
Across the UK, and that includes Southernden. Our prices are the same everywhere.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Baths
Common problems we fix in Southernden
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
