How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Preston on the Hill: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Why it’s worth resealing in Preston on the Hill
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Everything repaired in place
- Fixed prices from your photos
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Landlords, agents and businesses in Preston on the Hill
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
