DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Bath resealing at your home in The Frenches
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in The Frenches and across Hampshire.

What bath resealing costs
We charge the same across the UK, including The Frenches. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
Most clients in The Frenches get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes around two hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available

FAQs for The Frenches
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you cover the entire of Hampshire?
The whole UK, including all of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you need bath resealing in The Frenches?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A messy previous reseal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Stained silicone
- Gaps by the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
