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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
About our bath resealing in Little Finborough
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
