Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
About our bath resealing in Portnahaven
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and stained silicone.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

What bath resealing costs
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
When to call us in Portnahaven
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Customers typically contact us about:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
- Old sealant that looks dirty

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A flexing bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
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 will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
FAQs for Portnahaven
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
