Bath resealing at your home in West Row
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and damp near the bath.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IP28 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

When to call us in West Row
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
Look out for these signs:
- Damp near the bath
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Your questions about bath resealing in West Row
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
