- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Damp near the bath
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Let steam out after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Bath resealing at your home in Butley
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Resealing in Butley: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Butley: your questions answered
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Butley, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
