Bath resealing at your home in Alport
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, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about silicone coming away from the tiles and leaks at the edges.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
FAQs for Alport
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Resealing in Alport: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Alport. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths

Landlord and trade work in Alport
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
When to call us in Alport
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Look out for these signs:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- An untidy old seal
- Unsealed corners
- Mould you cannot clean out
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
