What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Kirkpatrick-Fleming questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We will give you the curing time, generally around a day.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What else we do in Kirkpatrick-Fleming
When to call us in Kirkpatrick-Fleming
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps by the taps
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A flexing bath
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
