Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Let steam out after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

- Mould you cannot clean out
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hemingford Grey as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- 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, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hemingford Grey. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
