Why it’s worth resealing in Ratby
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. 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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Bath resealing at your home in Ratby
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, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with discoloured, yellow sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Do you need bath resealing in Ratby?
Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps
- Stained silicone
- Mould you can’t clean out
Before booking anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
- What prep work is covered
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
Questions from Ratby
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Ratby included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ratby as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
