- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Bath resealing in Prospect, done in place
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We regularly repair baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and gaps in the seal.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Common questions in Prospect
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When to call us in Prospect
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Who turns up on the day
What bath resealing costs
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Let steam out after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
