How we handle bath resealing in Chelmorton
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. We regularly repair baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about old sealant that looks dirty and silicone smeared on tiles.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Chelmorton
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
