Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Bath resealing in Milby, done in place
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our repair technicians work on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about missing sealant behind the taps and an untidy old seal.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
FAQs for Milby

What bath resealing costs
There is no charge for travel to Milby. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When to call us in Milby
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Stained silicone
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Damp near the bath
Comparing quotes
- How soon you can use it again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Why it’s worth resealing in Milby
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
