- A messy previous reseal
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- 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, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Bath resealing at your home in Kirktown
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and mould you can’t clean out, we can typically put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A flexing bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Air the room after use
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Why reseal now?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. 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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Fixed prices from your photos

Kirktown questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What bath resealing costs
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
