Your questions about bath resealing in Upper Arncott
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OX25 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Do you need bath resealing in Upper Arncott?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Stained silicone
