Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Lower Earley, Wokingham
We travel to Lower Earley for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners
- Mould you cannot clean out
How we handle bath resealing in Lower Earley
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help, on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lower Earley as everywhere else we work.

What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Earley
For anyone letting property in or around Lower Earley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Signs you need bath resealing in Lower Earley
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Common reasons people in Lower Earley contact us include:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
- Black spots in the silicone
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts

Common questions in Lower Earley
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work in Lower Earley?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Lower Earley and the rest of Wokingham. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
