How we handle bath resealing in Pontesbury
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths, and common reasons people contact us are black spots in the silicone and discoloured, yellow sealant.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Pontesbury
Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Gaps in the seal
- Stained silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Black mould in the sealant

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Questions from Pontesbury
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint 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, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
If you are in Pontesbury and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
