  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
