About our bath resealing in Newmilns
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and silicone coming away from the tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- 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
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Common questions in Newmilns
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Let steam out after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
When to call us in Newmilns
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Comparing quotes
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
