Bath resealing at your home in Preston on Wye
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you are dealing with gaps in the seal and a messy previous reseal, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Resealing in Preston on Wye: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Common questions in Preston on Wye
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Preston on Wye and the rest of Herefordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
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. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you are in Preston on Wye and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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 typically cheaper.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
