How we handle bath resealing in Gateside
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and gaps by the taps, we can typically put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint 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.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Hidden water damage
- A flexing bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units

What affects the price in Gateside
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
