Bath resealing in Aldrington without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you are dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and black spots in the silicone, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Let steam out after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Do you need bath resealing in Aldrington?
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
The things customers normally mention when they call are:
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Unsealed corners

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
