Bath resealing in Bickington, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and an untidy old seal, we can help, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How we price bath resealing
There’s no area surcharge for Bickington. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Bickington, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Your questions about bath resealing in Bickington
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How long will it take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

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
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Resealing in Bickington: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bickington as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Signs you need bath resealing in Bickington
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners
