About our bath resealing in Raithby
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most frequently call us about mould you can’t clean out and old sealant that looks dirty.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
What affects the price in Raithby
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Raithby, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Common questions in Raithby
Are there extra charges for Raithby?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
