Local bath resealing for Achintee: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- A messy previous reseal
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Bath resealing at your home in Achintee
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are a messy previous reseal and black mould in the sealant.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Resealing in Achintee: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Achintee: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What affects the price in Achintee
We charge the same across the UK, including Achintee. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IV54 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
