FAQs for Kettlesing
Do you come to Kettlesing?
We do. We send a technician to Kettlesing for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens next?

Bath resealing at your home in Kettlesing
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with damp near the bath and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can normally put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we are called out for in Kettlesing
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Water getting behind the bath or tray

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
