About our bath resealing in Brownshill
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about damp near the bath and silicone smeared on tiles.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Brownshill
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A flexing bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Air the room after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Brownshill get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
