Signs you need bath resealing in Broughton
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Look out for any of the following:
- An untidy old seal
- Stained silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray

Bath resealing at your home in Broughton
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and gaps in the seal, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Your questions about bath resealing in Broughton
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Do you cover the whole of Cambridgeshire?
All of Cambridgeshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you work in Broughton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Broughton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in Broughton
We charge the same across the UK, including Broughton. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why it’s worth resealing in Broughton
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
