Bath resealing at your home in Markbeech
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about black mould in the sealant and discoloured, yellow sealant.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Markbeech
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Common problems we fix in Markbeech
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you can’t clean out
- An untidy old seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price bath resealing
There’s no area surcharge for Markbeech. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What else we do in Markbeech
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price

Advice
Common questions in Markbeech
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
