How we handle bath resealing in Staplehay
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and people most often call us about gaps by the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
Resealing in Staplehay: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What affects the price in Staplehay
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Staplehay. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Staplehay: your questions answered
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Do you work in Staplehay?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Staplehay for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
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.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
