About our bath resealing in Appley
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Your questions about bath resealing in Appley
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you cover the entire of Isle of Wight?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PO33 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
What we’re called out for in Appley
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- We leave the room as we found it
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Air the room after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep bottles off the joints
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
