How we handle bath resealing in Little Wigborough
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and gaps by the taps, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Do you need bath resealing in Little Wigborough?
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
- How your room will be protected
Little Wigborough questions
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you cover Little Wigborough?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Little Wigborough for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly 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’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Resealing in Little Wigborough: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
