Bath Resealing for Goodrington homes
Our repair technicians come to Goodrington for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Black mould in the sealant
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Leaks at the edges
Bath resealing in Goodrington without replacing anything
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. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are stained silicone and silicone smeared on tiles.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Goodrington: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Goodrington
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair

- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Let steam out after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
