Old Town questions

How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Old Town?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Bath resealing in Old Town without replacing anything
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and black spots in the silicone.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Old Town as everywhere else we work.

Resealing in Old Town: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 before booking.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Use the extractor fan
Run 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.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What affects the price in Old Town
We charge the same across the UK, including Old Town. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
