About our bath resealing in Mountfield

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We’re frequently asked to fix stained silicone and a messy previous reseal, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Mountfield and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths

Common questions in Mountfield

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Let steam out after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Resealing in Mountfield: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Mountfield customers choose us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
