About our bath resealing in Milton Ernest
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We’re often asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and black mould in the sealant, in kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

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
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Milton Ernest use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
FAQs for Milton Ernest
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Milton Ernest?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Milton Ernest. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Air the room after use
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
