Bath Resealing in Breaston
Bath resealing across Breaston and nearby, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
How we handle bath resealing in Breaston
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. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and missing sealant behind the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including Breaston. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DE72 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Breaston questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Common problems we fix in Breaston
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps by the taps

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Open a window after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
