When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Related advice
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What we’re called out for in Barsby
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Unsealed corners
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
