Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Open a window after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Signs you need bath resealing in Higher Wincombe
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

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.
