Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

About our bath resealing in Mystole

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. Most jobs take a couple of hours. If you’re dealing with a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can usually put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns 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 around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Signs you need bath resealing in Mystole

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price bath resealing

We don’t charge extra for travel to Mystole. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Mystole

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Mystole is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you cover Mystole?

We do. We send a technician to Mystole for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
