How we handle bath resealing in Mugginton
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and damp near the bath, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Mugginton as everywhere else we work.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use the extractor fan
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
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 typically the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
Most clients in Mugginton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
