Bath resealing in Maypole, done in place
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. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and discoloured, yellow sealant, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
Your questions about bath resealing in Maypole
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Maypole is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
