How we handle bath resealing in Allenton
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Your questions about bath resealing in Allenton
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You’ll get the curing time from us, usually around a day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you cover Allenton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Allenton. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your DE24 postcode.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common problems we fix in Allenton
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Stained silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
Before you book anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- If travel is included in the price
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DE24 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Why it’s worth resealing in Allenton
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
