Bath resealing at your home in Fleckney
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about black spots in the silicone and an untidy old seal.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Fleckney and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Resealing in Fleckney: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Fleckney: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
