Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Clapton, Somerset
Fixed-price bath resealing in Clapton and the surrounding area, typically in one visit.
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles

How we handle bath resealing in Clapton
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone coming away from the tiles, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Clapton questions
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hollow or loose tiles
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
When to call us in Clapton
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- A messy previous reseal
- Black spots in the silicone
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- How to care for the finish
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Landlord and trade work in Clapton

Resealing in Clapton: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Same prices wherever you are
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- We leave the room as we found it

How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you are in Clapton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
