About our bath resealing in Martin
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about black spots in the silicone and an untidy old seal.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business
- A fixed quote before you book
Read our full price list.
How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Martin. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LN9 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A flexing bath
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Martin: your questions answered
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You will get the curing time from us, usually around a day.
