Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Manton, Rutland
Local bath resealing for Manton: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- A messy previous reseal

- Leaks at the edges
How we handle bath resealing in Manton
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Manton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Manton: your questions answered
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We will give you the curing time.
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What else we do in Manton
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LE15 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
