Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Gamesley, Derbyshire
Bath resealing for Gamesley, without a refit. Send us photos for a fixed quote, then book a visit.
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Questions from Gamesley
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Gamesley included. Travel is included in the price.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How it works

- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
