We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and mould you can’t clean out, we can typically put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Fern
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SL7 postcode.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fern
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Advice

What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
