Bath Resealing in Farnham Royal
Our technicians come to Farnham Royal for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Stained silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
How we handle bath resealing in Farnham Royal
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about a messy previous reseal and gaps by the taps.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Your questions about bath resealing in Farnham Royal
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
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.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What we are called out for in Farnham Royal
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps in the seal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Comparing quotes
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- How the room is protected while they work
- How the colour is matched
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Let steam out after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep the joints dry
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
