Bath Resealing for Carlton Forest homes
Local bath resealing for Carlton Forest: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
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.
Bath resealing in Carlton Forest without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and silicone smeared on tiles, we can typically put it right.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Carlton Forest and across Nottinghamshire.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Carlton Forest, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What affects the price in Carlton Forest
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job.
FAQs for Carlton Forest
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Nottinghamshire.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Common problems we fix in Carlton Forest
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A messy previous reseal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Damp near the bath
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
