Bath Resealing for Racton homes
We travel to Racton for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Bath resealing at your home in Racton
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and black mould in the sealant, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Racton and across West Sussex.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Let steam out after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Racton questions
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?
We cover the entire UK, including Racton and the rest of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
