Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Barrow, Gloucestershire
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Barrow, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Missing sealant behind the taps
How we handle bath resealing in Barrow
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. We’re often asked to fix silicone smeared on tiles and leaks at the edges, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Hidden water damage
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps too big for silicone alone

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep bottles off the joints
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
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.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Barrow. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we’re called out for in Barrow
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Unsealed corners
- A messy previous reseal
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Questions to ask before booking
- If travel is included in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the area is dry

Advice
Barrow: your questions answered
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
