Questions from Burgh on Bain
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Lincolnshire.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your LN8 postcode.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Bath resealing at your home in Burgh on Bain
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We work on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about leaks at the edges and silicone coming away from the tiles.

Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Signs you need bath resealing in Burgh on Bain
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Gaps in the seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
- How changes to the job are handled
Landlord and trade work in Burgh on Bain
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Burgh on Bain, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
