Bath Resealing for Gay Bowers homes
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Gay Bowers, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps in the seal
- A messy previous reseal
- Leaks at the edges
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
About our bath resealing in Gay Bowers
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and missing sealant behind the taps, we can normally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Questions from Gay Bowers
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How long does a reseal take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Common reasons people in Gay Bowers contact us are:
- A messy previous reseal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Damp near the bath

Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
