Bath Resealing in Huxley
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Huxley, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps in the seal
Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Every job is a little different, 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.

Bath resealing in Huxley, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about mould you can’t clean out and sealant that’s split or lifting.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
What else we do in Huxley
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
When to call us in Huxley
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps by the taps
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A flexing bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
FAQs for Huxley
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
