About our bath resealing in Belgrave
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We’re frequently asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Why it’s worth resealing in Belgrave
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Belgrave. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths

How it works

- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Common questions in Belgrave
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Belgrave?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What areas do you cover?
All of Leicester, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
