- Stained silicone
- Unsealed corners
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Bath resealing at your home in Boarshead
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and gaps by the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Boarshead questions
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
How long does a reseal take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in Boarshead
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Gaps by the taps
- A messy previous reseal
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
