Bath resealing in Carleton, done in place
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and damp near the bath, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Carleton questions
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow around two hours.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Why it’s worth resealing in Carleton
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Let steam out after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
