- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Bath resealing at your home in Oak Corner
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and old sealant that looks dirty.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What we’re called out for in Oak Corner
Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps by the taps
What your quote should include
- If travel is included in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- How the room is protected while they work
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
FAQs for Oak Corner
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How we price bath resealing
There’s no charge for travel to Oak Corner. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oak Corner use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
