Bath resealing at your home in Monkerton
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We’re often asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and black mould in the sealant, across kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repairs by material
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.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

Your questions about bath resealing in Monkerton
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What affects the price in Monkerton
We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Monkerton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
