About our bath resealing in Carlton Colville
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and a messy previous reseal, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Carlton Colville as everywhere else we work.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Common questions in Carlton Colville
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Dry the seal after bathing
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Signs you need bath resealing in Carlton Colville
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Missing sealant behind the taps

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Carlton Colville use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
For a price in Carlton Colville, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
