Bath resealing at your home in Kenton
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We are frequently asked to fix stained silicone and mould you can’t clean out, in kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 usually cheaper.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Hidden water damage
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Signs you need bath resealing in Kenton
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Gaps by the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Leaks at the edges
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
- Who will actually do the work
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Kenton questions
Do you cover Kenton?
We do. We send a technician to Kenton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Kenton?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NE3 postcode.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Kenton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
