Bath resealing at your home in Tiptoe
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and unsealed corners.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including Tiptoe. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Questions from Tiptoe
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
How long will it take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Resealing in Tiptoe: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
