Bath resealing in Lowfield without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are old sealant that looks dirty and black mould in the sealant.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone

Lowfield questions
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Lowfield?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
Most customers in Lowfield get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Open a window after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What affects the price in Lowfield
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Lowfield, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Do you need bath resealing in Lowfield?
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps by the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Comparing quotes
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
