Bath resealing in Paston, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and unsealed corners.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Signs you need bath resealing in Paston
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Leaks at the edges
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site

Common questions in Paston
How long does silicone take to cure?
Typically after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
How long does resealing take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?
Across the UK, so Paston is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Paston
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Why it’s worth resealing in Paston
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
