Bath resealing in Blyton without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with gaps by the taps and damp near the bath, we can typically put it right.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Let steam out after showers
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Your questions about bath resealing in Blyton
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Do you work in Blyton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Blyton and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Blyton. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
If you’re in Blyton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
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 won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
