Bath Resealing for Old Stratford homes
We travel to Old Stratford for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Bath resealing at your home in Old Stratford
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Old Stratford and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we are called out for in Old Stratford
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
- Stained silicone
- Gaps in the seal

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Let steam out after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Keep the joints dry
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Your questions about bath resealing in Old Stratford
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
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.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
