Bath resealing at your home in Lower East Carleton
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and silicone smeared on tiles, in baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Lower East Carleton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Lower East Carleton. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
FAQs for Lower East Carleton
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Lower East Carleton?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
