Bath resealing at your home in Doughton
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are unsealed corners and stained silicone.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep the joints dry
- Open a window after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Common problems we fix in Doughton
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An untidy old seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Unsealed corners

Common questions in Doughton
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you cover Doughton?
We do. We send a technician to Doughton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Doughton included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
