The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Balscote: your questions answered
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Oxfordshire.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Balscote is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Is the work guaranteed?

Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Balscote

Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
