Questions from Portbury
How long does a reseal take?
Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What affects the price in Portbury
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Dry the seal after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Resealing in Portbury: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
