Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Heighington, Lincolnshire
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Heighington, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Unsealed corners
How we handle bath resealing in Heighington
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Heighington questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you come to Heighington?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Heighington. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Resealing in Heighington: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
