Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Let steam out after showers
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Do you need bath resealing in Lower Saltonstall?
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
- An untidy old seal

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Your questions about bath resealing in Lower Saltonstall
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How long will it take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Lower Saltonstall. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
