Bath resealing at your home in Combs

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps by the taps, we can generally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take around two hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to compare quotes

Resealing in Combs: why it matters

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 usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

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 photos, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
