About our bath resealing in Melness
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, in wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Melness questions
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Melness?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Signs you need bath resealing in Melness
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Look out for any of the following:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black spots in the silicone
