Resealing in Mount Pleasant: why it matters
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One visit for most repairs
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mount Pleasant use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
Prices and what affects them
There is no area surcharge for Mount Pleasant. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Mount Pleasant questions
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
