Bath Resealing for Calcot homes
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Calcot, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- An untidy old seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal
Landlords, agents and businesses in Calcot
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Calcot use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Bath resealing in Calcot without replacing anything
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and an untidy old seal, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Calcot questions
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Are there extra charges for Calcot?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Why reseal now?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

- Gaps by the taps
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Stained silicone
