If you are dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and black mould in the sealant, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units alike.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What affects the price in Caiystane
There is no charge for travel to Caiystane. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Why reseal now?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. 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. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Work done at your home or business
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A year’s guarantee on all work

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
