Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Bath resealing in Broughtown without replacing anything
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. Most jobs take a couple of hours. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are an untidy old seal and gaps by the taps.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common problems we fix in Broughtown
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A messy previous reseal
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Broughtown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Work done at your home or business
- No need to remove anything

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
