Bath Resealing in Welbourn
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Welbourn, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- An untidy old seal
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Stained silicone
How we handle bath resealing in Welbourn
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We are frequently asked to fix stained silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, in kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What bath resealing costs
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we are called out for in Welbourn
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

- Black spots in the silicone
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- An untidy old seal

Resealing in Welbourn: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A few things move the price: 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.

- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Welbourn: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you come to Welbourn?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Welbourn from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
