Bath Resealing for Gordon homes
Our repair technicians come to Gordon for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps in the seal
- Stained silicone
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
How we handle bath resealing in Gordon
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours. Common call-outs are for sealant that’s split or lifting and stained silicone, across shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Signs you need bath resealing in Gordon
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Gaps by the taps
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you cannot clean out
- A messy previous reseal
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether a trained technician does the job
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gordon use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Questions from Gordon
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you cover Gordon?
We do. We send a technician to Gordon for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
