Bath resealing in Longbyre without replacing anything
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, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are an untidy old seal and discoloured, yellow sealant.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Resealing in Longbyre: why it matters
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. The price 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 price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Common problems we fix in Longbyre
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How to care for the finish
- How the colour is matched
- What happens if they find more damage

How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
