We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We are frequently asked to fix a messy previous reseal and stained silicone, in kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.

FAQs for Uplyme
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you come to Uplyme?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Uplyme. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
How much does bath resealing cost in Uplyme?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Same prices wherever you are
- A fixed quote before you book
- One visit for most repairs

Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
What affects the price in Uplyme
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Uplyme, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Common problems we fix in Uplyme
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Damp near the bath
- Black mould in the sealant
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
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.
