Bath resealing in Upton without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We are often asked to fix black mould in the sealant and unsealed corners, across wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Questions from Upton
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Upton
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
Look out for these signs:
- Unsealed corners
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- An untidy old seal
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- How changes to the job are handled
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Upton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
