Bath Resealing for Washington Village homes
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Washington Village, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Unsealed corners
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
How we handle bath resealing in Washington Village
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Our repair technicians work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

FAQs for Washington Village
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Washington Village?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Washington Village
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
