Bath resealing in Welham without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and missing sealant behind the taps, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

FAQs for Welham
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you come to Welham?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Welham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Welham
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Welham use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a couple of hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What bath resealing costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Welham. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
