Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Signs you need bath resealing in Potters Marston

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Unsealed corners

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before you book

Potters Marston: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Leicestershire.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise 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 pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
