About our bath resealing in Burton End
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are unsealed corners and water getting behind the bath or tray.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
- Black mould in the sealant
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A flexing bath
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Burton End. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you are in Burton End and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. 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 and we’ll arrange it.
Resealing in Burton End: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- A fixed quote before booking
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Burton End: your questions answered
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
