- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Bath resealing in Stone, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and missing sealant behind the taps.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What bath resealing costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Questions from Stone
How long does resealing take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you cover Stone?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Stone and the rest of Staffordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Generally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
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.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
