Bath resealing at your home in Hatfield Hyde
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with gaps by the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can usually put it right.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Hatfield Hyde, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Questions from Hatfield Hyde
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How long does resealing take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
When to call us in Hatfield Hyde
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps
Before you book anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hertfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Let steam out after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
