- An untidy old seal
- Damp near the bath
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf

- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Advice
Resealing in Colston Bassett: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Colston Bassett. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Repairs by material
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.
Common problems we fix in Colston Bassett
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant

Your questions about bath resealing in Colston Bassett
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Do you work in Colston Bassett?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Colston Bassett. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Colston Bassett.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Colston Bassett?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
What affects the price in Colston Bassett
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
