About our bath resealing in Balne
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are black mould in the sealant and gaps by the taps.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Balne: your questions answered
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
How long does a reseal take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Landlord and trade work in Balne
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Balne use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Resealing in Balne: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- We leave the room as we found it
- One price list for the whole UK
- A fixed quote before booking

Can I fix it myself?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

What else we do in Balne
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Let steam out after showers
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Get a quote
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
