Bath resealing at your home in Bullockstone
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms alike.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Bullockstone: your questions answered
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Signs you need bath resealing in Bullockstone
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Unsealed corners
- Black spots in the silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who turns up on the day
- When it can be used again

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:

- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bullockstone. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
