Bath resealing in Widham, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Widham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What else we do in Widham
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common problems we fix in Widham
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Gaps by the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- A messy previous reseal

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
For a price in Widham, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Common questions in Widham
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
