Bath resealing in Pottersheath without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are an untidy old seal and leaks at the edges.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Let steam out after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
