How we handle bath resealing in Kentrigg
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Common call-outs are for old sealant that looks dirty and a messy previous reseal, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What we are called out for in Kentrigg
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

- If travel is included in the price
Prices and what affects them
There is no charge for travel to Kentrigg. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep the joints dry
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Let steam out after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Hollow or loose tiles

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Your questions about bath resealing in Kentrigg
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.
