Bath Resealing for Boothby Graffoe homes
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Boothby Graffoe, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Bath resealing in Boothby Graffoe without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can generally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath resealing in Boothby Graffoe?
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Gaps by the taps
- Damp near the bath

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What affects the price in Boothby Graffoe
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Your questions about bath resealing in Boothby Graffoe
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How long does a reseal take?
Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Boothby Graffoe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
