How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, tidy-up included.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Your questions about bath resealing in Pity Me
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from photos 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.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When to call us in Pity Me
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
Comparing quotes
- How to care for the finish
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How your room will be protected
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Air the room after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pity Me as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Pity Me, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
