Bath resealing in Burcot, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We are frequently asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges, across shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Burcot and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Resealing in Burcot: why it matters
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Common questions in Burcot
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time, typically around a day.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you work in Burcot?
We do. Technicians travel to Burcot from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
