  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

FAQs for Martinslade

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, 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.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Signs you need bath resealing in Martinslade

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How the colour is matched
