Bath resealing at your home in Besthorpe
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant, in baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Nottinghamshire.

Besthorpe: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Besthorpe and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Do you need bath resealing in Besthorpe?
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- An untidy old seal

The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- 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.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NG23 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Why it’s worth resealing in Besthorpe
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Besthorpe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep the joints dry
- Open a window after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
