How we handle bath resealing in Garmston
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, we can generally put it right.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Garmston: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long does a reseal take?
Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for around two hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Why it’s worth resealing in Garmston
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Garmston
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Air the room after use
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Store bottles on a shelf
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Garmston use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
