How we handle bath resealing in Longhope
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with mould you can’t clean out and damp near the bath, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Open a window after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep the joints dry
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common questions in Longhope
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Longhope?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Longhope. Prices do not change with location.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Longhope
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
