How we handle bath resealing in Blackmore End
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include discoloured, yellow sealant and leaks at the edges, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Blackmore End. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Store bottles on a shelf
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Common questions in Blackmore End
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you need bath resealing in Blackmore End?
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
The things clients usually mention when they call include:
- Gaps in the seal
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to care for the finish
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
