Can I fix it myself?
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 generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
About our bath resealing in Boroughby
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and a messy previous reseal, we can help.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Boroughby
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Boroughby use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
FAQs for Boroughby
How much does bath resealing cost in Boroughby?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

The process
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access

Shower trays
