- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
How we handle bath resealing in Great Musgrave
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone coming away from the tiles, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Great Musgrave
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Great Musgrave questions
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Generally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Do you come to Great Musgrave?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Great Musgrave from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Open a window after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
