Advice
Bath resealing in Chedburgh, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include damp near the bath and gaps by the taps, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Air the room after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
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, so the joint is at its widest.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Questions from Chedburgh
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
