How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
How we handle bath resealing in Star
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are sealant that’s split or lifting and unsealed corners.
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.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
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, so the joint is at its widest.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for Star
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Landlord and trade work in Star
For anyone letting property in or around Star, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
