Bath resealing in Westrip without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most frequently call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and mould you can’t clean out.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How we price bath resealing

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Westrip

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Typically because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How long before I can shower?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners
