Bath resealing in Benton without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with gaps by the taps and black mould in the sealant, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Air the room after use
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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, then guarantee it for a year.

Benton questions
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Honest limits
