How we handle bath resealing in Gaddesby
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with 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 shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about gaps by the taps and water getting behind the bath or tray.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When we would advise against a repair
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 flexing bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Your questions about bath resealing in Gaddesby
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How long will it take?
Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Gaddesby. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Gaddesby, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
