How we handle bath resealing in Broomhill
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting behind the bath or tray and missing sealant behind the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What bath resealing costs

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know

Why reseal now?

Common problems we fix in Broomhill
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

- Stained silicone

- Damp near the bath
What your quote should include

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
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
