Bath resealing in Darcy Lever, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and mould you can’t clean out.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

When to call us in Darcy Lever
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

- A messy previous reseal
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Gaps in the seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
What to look for in a quote

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
