What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
