How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
About our bath resealing in Whixall
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and black mould in the sealant, in basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Whixall and across Shropshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

FAQs for Whixall
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
