Questions from Bishop's Waltham
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How long does resealing take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Bishop's Waltham?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Landlord and trade work in Bishop's Waltham
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
What we’re called out for in Bishop's Waltham

- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
