Bath Resealing in Dandy Corner
Bath resealing across Dandy Corner and nearby, generally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Bath resealing in Dandy Corner without replacing anything
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and stained silicone, across wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Landlord and trade work in Dandy Corner
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What affects the price in Dandy Corner
You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IP14 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Signs you need bath resealing in Dandy Corner

- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
