Bath resealing in Sparry Bottom, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and stained silicone, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Why it’s worth resealing in Sparry Bottom
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a couple of hours.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
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.

Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What bath resealing costs
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Sparry Bottom: your questions answered
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
