Bath Resealing in Pear Tree
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Pear Tree, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- An untidy old seal
- Unsealed corners
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Bath resealing in Pear Tree, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and people most often call us about mould you can’t clean out and discoloured, yellow sealant.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Pear Tree: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you work in Pear Tree?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Pear Tree. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Generally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

- Hidden water damage
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
