Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Barkham, Wokingham
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Barkham, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Black mould in the sealant
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps in the seal
How we handle bath resealing in Barkham
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you’re dealing with mould you can’t clean out and silicone smeared on tiles, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Signs you need bath resealing in Barkham
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- No extra charge for your area
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What affects the price in Barkham
We don’t charge extra for travel to Barkham. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Barkham: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
