What we’re called out for in Key Green
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black mould in the sealant
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps by the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How to look after the finish
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Bath resealing in Key Green without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

FAQs for Key Green
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Key Green is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Key Green. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit

- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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 few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Baths
