Bath resealing in Pelton, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We are often asked to fix silicone smeared on tiles and leaks at the edges, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
If you manage property in Pelton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Pelton questions
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How long before I can shower?
Normally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Let steam out after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the area is dry
