FAQs for Collingtree
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
About our bath resealing in Collingtree
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Typical jobs include a messy previous reseal and black mould in the sealant, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

When to call us in Collingtree
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Leaks at the edges
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What protection goes down before work starts
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Generally one visit, start to finish
