Bath resealing at your home in Great Orton
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We’re often asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and sealant that’s split or lifting, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Signs you need bath resealing in Great Orton

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Great Orton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Normally one visit, start to finish

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CA5 postcode.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
