Common problems we fix in Oakbank
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps by the taps
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black mould in the sealant

Resealing in Oakbank: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Air the room after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
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.

Oakbank questions
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes around two hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
