Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How we handle bath resealing in Downderry
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We are often asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and black spots in the silicone, across basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Your questions about bath resealing in Downderry
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A flexing bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What bath resealing costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
