Bath resealing across Ards: what to expect
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We are frequently asked to fix gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal, in wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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 frequently lifts.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Let steam out after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Signs you need bath resealing
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Ards questions
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Ards.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
