Bath Resealing across Stoke-on-Trent

Bath resealing across Stoke-on-Trent: what to expect

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps by the taps and silicone smeared on tiles.

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

How the damage happens

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Look out for these signs:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Unsealed corners
  • Stained silicone

Why repair rather than replace?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right.

What a repair can’t fix

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

FAQs for Stoke-on-Trent

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
