Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Overton, Gloucestershire
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Overton, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps by the taps
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Bath resealing in Overton without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and a messy previous reseal, in basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Common questions in Overton
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Are there extra charges for Overton?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you work in Overton?
We do. We send a technician to Overton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Overton. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Overton, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your GL2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
