Bath resealing at your home in Biggin
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and black spots in the silicone, we can normally put it right, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

How we price bath resealing
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
Most customers in Biggin get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Your questions about bath resealing in Biggin
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
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.
How long does a reseal take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
When to call us in Biggin
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Gaps in the seal
- Unsealed corners
- Black spots in the silicone
- Leaks at the edges
Before you book anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to look after the finish
- Whether they match the colour on site
Why it’s worth resealing in Biggin
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
