- Damp near the bath
- An untidy old seal

What we’re called out for in Rahane
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Stained silicone
- An untidy old seal
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What preparation is included
Bath resealing in Rahane without replacing anything
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with black mould in the sealant and gaps by the taps, we can usually put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Let steam out after showers
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Questions from Rahane
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Are there extra charges for Rahane?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
If you manage property in Rahane, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
