Bath Resealing across Leicester

Bath resealing at your home in Leicester

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We are frequently asked to fix mould you can’t clean out and an untidy old seal, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Landlord and trade work in Leicester

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Leicester use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.

Repair or replace?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How your room will be protected

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What we are called out for in Leicester

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps by the taps

FAQs for Leicester

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
