Bath resealing at your home in Littleworth
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We are often asked to fix mould you can’t clean out and an untidy old seal, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Littleworth as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Littleworth questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Why it’s worth resealing in Littleworth
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Littleworth. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Signs you need bath resealing in Littleworth
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

- Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before booking
