Why it’s worth resealing in Duddington
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in Duddington
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlord and trade work in Duddington
For anyone letting property in or around Duddington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
