Bath resealing in Wellswood, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Wellswood and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Your questions about bath resealing in Wellswood
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Wellswood, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What bath resealing costs
There’s no charge for travel to Wellswood. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Wellswood, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What else we do in Wellswood
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
