About our bath resealing in Kingsteps
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you’re dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and silicone smeared on tiles, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Let steam out after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
What we are called out for in Kingsteps
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- A messy previous reseal
- Black spots in the silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- How your room will be protected
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kingsteps
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IV12 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair

- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
