FAQs for Maddiston
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Bath resealing in Maddiston without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and old sealant that looks dirty.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Maddiston as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
How the visit works

- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
