Bath resealing in Tregurtha Downs, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for sealant that’s split or lifting and missing sealant behind the taps, across shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tregurtha Downs use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What does bath resealing cost?

Can you quote from pictures?

Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
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.
