- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit

- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Bath resealing in Blackdown without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal, in wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Your questions about bath resealing in Blackdown
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do you cover Blackdown?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Blackdown. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
When to call us in Blackdown
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Common reasons people in Blackdown contact us include:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Damp near the bath
- Missing sealant behind the taps
What to look for in a quote
- How changes to the job are handled
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- Aftercare advice
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, 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.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Blackdown, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
