About our bath resealing in Booth
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. If you’re dealing with a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can usually put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Your questions about bath resealing in Booth
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you come to Booth?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Booth and the rest of Staffordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Resealing in Booth: why it matters
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access

When to call us in Booth
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Damp near the bath
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the colour is matched
- Who will actually do the work
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
