Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Mongewell, Oxfordshire
Our repair technicians come to Mongewell for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- A messy previous reseal

- Sealant that is split or lifting
Bath resealing in Mongewell, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We are frequently asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and missing sealant behind the taps, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Mongewell questions
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Mongewell?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your OX10 postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Mongewell. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Mongewell
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures

Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
