- Sealant that is split or lifting
Bath resealing in Blackwell without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal, we can normally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Your questions about bath resealing in Blackwell
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your DE55 postcode.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Blackwell
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Air the room after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Common problems we fix in Blackwell
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Gaps in the seal
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you cannot clean out
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
Read our prices page.

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow around two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.

What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Blackwell, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
