Bath Resealing in Olveston
Fixed-price bath resealing in Olveston and the surrounding area, usually in one visit.
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Bath resealing at your home in Olveston
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We’re often asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps by the taps, in baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Olveston
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Unsealed corners
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- If travel is included in the price
Why it’s worth resealing in Olveston
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A fixed quote before you book

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Let steam out after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Use the extractor fan
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Landlord and trade work in Olveston
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Olveston: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Olveston is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a couple of hours.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
