About our bath resealing in Pentrichlane-end
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are black spots in the silicone and gaps by the taps.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Why it’s worth resealing in Pentrichlane-end
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
