Bath resealing in Tealing, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include a messy previous reseal and old sealant that looks dirty, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Your questions about bath resealing in Tealing
How long does silicone take to cure?
You will get the curing time from us.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you work in Tealing?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Tealing. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

What else we do in Tealing
What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Tealing. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Tealing, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Tealing, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
What we’re called out for in Tealing
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if they find more damage
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
