Bath resealing in Gilstead without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant that’s split or lifting and old sealant that looks dirty.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including Gilstead. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we are called out for in Gilstead
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black spots in the silicone
- Leaks at the edges
- A messy previous reseal
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- 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.
How to prepare

- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Gilstead questions
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
