Bath resealing in Ball, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We are frequently asked to fix mould you can’t clean out and an untidy old seal, in kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A flexing bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why Ball clients choose us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Generally one visit, start to finish

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Let steam out after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Common problems we fix in Ball
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Damp near the bath
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Common questions in Ball
Are there extra charges for Ball?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours. We leave the room clean.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Ball, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
