- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Mould you can’t clean out
Questions from Largoward
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
About our bath resealing in Largoward
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. If you’re dealing with a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Largoward and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Quotes from your pictures

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Signs you need bath resealing in Largoward
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- An untidy old seal
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black spots in the silicone
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the room is protected while they work
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Resealing in Largoward: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
