Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Old Passage, South Gloucestershire
Fixed-price bath resealing in Old Passage and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to around two hours, tidy-up included.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Bath resealing in Old Passage, done in place
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about silicone coming away from the tiles and old sealant that looks dirty.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Old Passage questions
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you cover the whole of South Gloucestershire?

Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you need bath resealing in Old Passage?
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone
- Gaps by the taps
- Gaps in the seal

What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A flexing bath
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
