Bath resealing in Barrow upon Soar without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are sealant that’s split or lifting and leaks at the edges.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Why it’s worth resealing in Barrow upon Soar
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Work done at your home or business
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- A year’s guarantee on all work

What affects the price in Barrow upon Soar
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Barrow upon Soar, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Barrow upon Soar: your questions answered
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We will give you the curing time, normally around a day.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
When to call us in Barrow upon Soar
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Mould you cannot clean out
- An untidy old seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Air the room after use
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
