Bath resealing at your home in Windmill Hill
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths, and people most frequently call us about silicone coming away from the tiles and unsealed corners.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What bath resealing costs
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Windmill Hill questions
How long will it take?
Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried 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.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
