Bath Resealing in Wickford
Bath resealing in Wickford without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, then book a visit.

- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Unsealed corners
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, and the work is guaranteed.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
About our bath resealing in Wickford
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with a messy previous reseal and old sealant that looks dirty, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Your questions about bath resealing in Wickford

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How long does resealing take?

Do I need to be at home?

Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wickford
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Use the extractor fan
- Open a window after bathing
- Dry the seal after bathing
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Signs you need bath resealing in Wickford
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Stained silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Who turns up on the day
