Bath resealing in Watten, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include sealant that’s split or lifting and missing sealant behind the taps, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
We don’t 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.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. 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 will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
