Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Burton upon Stather. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
When to call us in Burton upon Stather
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Stained silicone
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Burton upon Stather questions
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
