Bath resealing at your home in Gravel Castle
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you’re dealing with black mould in the sealant and leaks at the edges, we can normally put it right, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Gravel Castle questions
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
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 before the end of a tenancy.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us.

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
What affects the price in Gravel Castle
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Keep the room well ventilated, 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.
Why it’s worth resealing in Gravel Castle
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Common problems we fix in Gravel Castle
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Look out for these signs:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- An untidy old seal
- Stained silicone
- Mould you cannot clean out
