Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Checkendon, Oxfordshire
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for homes and businesses in Checkendon and across Oxfordshire. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Black mould in the sealant
- Stained silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
How we handle bath resealing in Checkendon
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and a messy previous reseal, we can help, on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Questions from Checkendon
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Common problems we fix in Checkendon
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Clients usually contact us about:
- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers

- What preparation is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Why it’s worth resealing in Checkendon
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Fixed prices from your photos

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, 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.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
