Bath resealing in Loxford without replacing anything
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include damp near the bath and mould you can’t clean out, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Why it’s worth resealing in Loxford
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A year’s guarantee on all work
See our prices page.
What affects the price in Loxford
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Questions from Loxford
How long does silicone take to cure?
Generally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Loxford.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Signs you need bath resealing in Loxford
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Unsealed corners
- Leaks at the edges
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- If travel is included in the price
- When it can be used again
- What aftercare is recommended
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Open a window after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
