Bath resealing in Broad Oak, done in place
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 an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, 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.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Your questions about bath resealing in Broad Oak
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Signs you need bath resealing in Broad Oak
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- An untidy old seal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Leaks at the edges
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work

Landlord and trade work in Broad Oak
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
