Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Potterhanworth, Lincolnshire
Fixed-price bath resealing in Potterhanworth and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- A messy previous reseal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Sealant that is split or lifting
When to call us in Potterhanworth
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Gaps by the taps
- Gaps in the seal
- Damp near the bath
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
Bath resealing in Potterhanworth, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and leaks at the edges, across wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Potterhanworth: your questions answered
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you work in Potterhanworth?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Potterhanworth from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- 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 run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
