How we handle bath resealing in Kibworth
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. We’re often asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and old sealant that looks dirty, on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Open a window after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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.
Why reseal now?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Questions from Kibworth
How much does bath resealing cost in Kibworth?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your LE8 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?
All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Signs you need bath resealing in Kibworth
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An untidy old seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Comparing quotes
- How to look after the finish

- Whether the colour is mixed to match
