Bath resealing in Brabourne without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps in the seal.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Common problems we fix in Brabourne
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps in the seal
- Gaps by the taps

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

What else we do in Brabourne
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Let steam out after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brabourne use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Resealing in Brabourne: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise 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.
