Bath Resealing in Cotford
We travel to Cotford for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Damp near the bath
- Stained silicone
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Cotford

How we handle bath resealing in Cotford
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about silicone smeared on tiles and silicone coming away from the tiles.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Do you need bath resealing in Cotford?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Unsealed corners
- Black spots in the silicone
- Stained silicone

What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Cotford questions
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Cotford included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Landlord and trade work in Cotford
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Resealing in Cotford: why it matters
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
