- Black mould in the sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- An untidy old seal
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep the joints dry
- Keep bottles off the joints
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
How we handle bath resealing in Cowling

Questions from Cowling
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Cowling.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
