About our bath resealing in Bicker
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We are frequently asked to fix sealant that’s split or lifting and missing sealant behind the taps, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage

Your questions about bath resealing in Bicker
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Bicker and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A flexing bath
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bicker
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
