Bath Resealing in Milltown
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Milltown, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that is split or lifting
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we handle bath resealing in Milltown
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and gaps by the taps, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Milltown and across Derbyshire.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
For anyone letting property in or around Milltown, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
