Bath resealing in Billinghay, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about mould you can’t clean out and gaps by the taps.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Open a window after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
FAQs for Billinghay
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
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.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are there extra charges for Billinghay?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What bath resealing costs
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we’re called out for in Billinghay
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Unsealed corners
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black spots in the silicone
- A messy previous reseal
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 normally cheaper.
Resealing in Billinghay: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
