Bath resealing at your home in Dunecht
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are mould you can’t clean out and damp near the bath.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Dunecht
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long does a reseal take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Dunecht is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Air the room after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep the joints dry
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What we are called out for in Dunecht
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Unsealed corners
- Black spots in the silicone
- An untidy old seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty

Resealing in Dunecht: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
