Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Blackburn, Blackburn with Darwen
Bath resealing in Blackburn without the cost of replacing. Get a fixed price from your pictures, then we come to you.
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Bath resealing in Blackburn, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and silicone coming away from the tiles.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- 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
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Do you need bath resealing in Blackburn?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- An untidy old seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Unsealed corners
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How to care for the finish
