Bath Resealing in East Hunsbury
Fixed-price bath resealing in East Hunsbury and the surrounding area, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Black spots in the silicone
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Bath resealing in East Hunsbury without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re often asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and gaps by the taps, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

East Hunsbury: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northamptonshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we are called out for in East Hunsbury
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- A messy previous reseal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day
- How the room is protected while they work
- How soon you can use it again

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
