How we handle bath resealing in Bistre
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and missing sealant behind the taps, we can typically put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bistre as everywhere else we work.

Questions from Bistre
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Do you come to Bistre?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Bistre from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bistre
If you manage property in Bistre, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bistre as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What affects the price in Bistre
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Why it’s worth resealing in Bistre
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
- Use the extractor fan
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
