About our bath resealing in Astrop
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access

What affects the price in Astrop

Astrop: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you work in Astrop?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Astrop and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How long does resealing take?
Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need bath resealing in Astrop?
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
