- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Bath resealing in Pickwell without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about black spots in the silicone and stained silicone.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Pickwell. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Questions from Pickwell
How much does bath resealing cost in Pickwell?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Pickwell and the rest of Leicestershire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Do you need bath resealing in Pickwell?

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.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
