We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What does bath resealing cost?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
What affects the price in Sunniside
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sunniside. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Keep the joints dry
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
