Bath resealing at your home in Barlborough
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and black mould in the sealant, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep the joints dry
- Air the room after use
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper 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.
When to call us in Barlborough
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- An untidy old seal
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price covers travel
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barlborough use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

FAQs for Barlborough
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Barlborough?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
