The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units

Signs you need bath resealing in Loyter's Green

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Stained silicone
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before booking anyone

  • How the colour is matched

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before booking

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Open a window after bathing

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
