When to call us in Broad Oak
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Missing sealant behind the taps

About our bath resealing in Broad Oak
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about damp near the bath and black mould in the sealant.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Let steam out after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Common questions in Broad Oak
How much does bath resealing cost in Broad Oak?
We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT10 postcode.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do you cover Broad Oak?
We do. Technicians travel to Broad Oak from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Broad Oak. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Hidden water damage
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
