Bath resealing at your home in Gubblecote
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and gaps in the seal.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common questions in Gubblecote
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time, usually around a day.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Hertfordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can

Resealing in Gubblecote: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Same prices wherever you are

Do you need bath resealing in Gubblecote?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- An untidy old seal
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
