About our bath resealing in Thurcaston
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include leaks at the edges and discoloured, yellow sealant, across shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours, tidy-up included.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Your questions about bath resealing in Thurcaston
How long does resealing take?

We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thurcaston use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
