How we handle bath resealing in Finham
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and silicone smeared on tiles, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Finham as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
- Air the room after use
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Common problems we fix in Finham
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Gaps in the seal
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

Finham questions
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Landlord and trade work in Finham
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Is resealing worth it?

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Finham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.

How we price bath resealing
We do not charge extra for travel to Finham. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
