Bath resealing at your home in Towngate

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are mould you can’t clean out and a messy previous reseal.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Common questions in Towngate

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How long does resealing take?

Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How we price bath resealing

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Towngate. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
