Advice
Bath resealing in Upton without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are missing sealant behind the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including Upton. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Upton questions
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Normally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Common problems we fix in Upton
Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.
