Resealing in Ranby: why it matters
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Bath resealing in Ranby without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and gaps by the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Ranby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
For a price in Ranby, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Questions from Ranby
How long does silicone take to cure?
You’ll get the curing time from us, typically around a day.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
