Bath resealing in Folksworth, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
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 reply with a fixed price.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

FAQs for Folksworth
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you cover the whole of Cambridgeshire?
All of Cambridgeshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on

What bath resealing costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Folksworth. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Do you need bath resealing in Folksworth?
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- Unsealed corners
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
