Bath resealing in West Hendred, done in place
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include sealant that’s split or lifting and black mould in the sealant, across baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?

How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including West Hendred. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
For a price in West Hendred, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
