Bath resealing in Whitchurch without replacing anything
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and leaks at the edges, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Whitchurch: your questions answered
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Whitchurch?
Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your HR9 postcode.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Whitchurch
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Whitchurch, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
What we are called out for in Whitchurch
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- An untidy old seal
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who turns up on the day
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
Most customers in Whitchurch get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
