About our bath resealing in Lynstone
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and black mould in the sealant, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Resealing in Lynstone: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
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.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What we’re called out for in Lynstone
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Unsealed corners
Comparing quotes
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended

How much does bath resealing cost in Lynstone?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
