Bath resealing in Welch Whittle, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. If you are dealing with an untidy old seal and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Welch Whittle: your questions answered
How long does silicone take to cure?
Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How long does a reseal take?
Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair

What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What affects the price in Welch Whittle
We charge the same across the UK, including Welch Whittle. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Resealing in Welch Whittle: why it matters
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Most jobs done in one visit

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
