Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Use the extractor fan
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Why reseal now?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
