Westbourne: your questions answered
How long does resealing take?
Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your W2 postcode.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you come to Westbourne?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Westbourne for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Westbourne?
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- An untidy old seal
- Black spots in the silicone

- Missing sealant behind the taps

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price

For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
Most clients in Westbourne get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
