How we handle bath resealing in Linstock
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

FAQs for Linstock
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
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.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Are there extra charges for Linstock?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Linstock. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Common problems we fix in Linstock
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Damp near the bath
- Sealant that is split or lifting
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- How to care for the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- If travel is included in the price
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

There’s no area surcharge for Linstock. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise 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.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Any details about the material
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
