Bath resealing in Yarlington, done in place
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are damp near the bath and gaps by the taps.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Yarlington and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Prices and what affects them
There is no area surcharge for Yarlington. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
For a price in Yarlington, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
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, with the joint fully dried first.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Yarlington: your questions answered
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BA9 postcode.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
