DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry

Related advice
Do you need bath resealing in Himbleton?
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Leaks at the edges
- A messy previous reseal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Unsealed corners
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long it needs to cure
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Himbleton
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A year’s guarantee on all work

FAQs for Himbleton
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How much does bath resealing cost in Himbleton?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you cover the entire of Worcestershire?
Everywhere in the UK, Himbleton included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
