Bath Resealing for Barlestone homes
We travel to Barlestone for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Black mould in the sealant
- A messy previous reseal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Bath resealing in Barlestone, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and leaks at the edges, we can usually put it right, on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

What else we do in Barlestone
Resealing in Barlestone: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A fixed quote before you book

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A flexing bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Questions from Barlestone
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Landlord and trade work in Barlestone
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

- Mould you cannot clean out
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
