How we handle bath resealing in Rawreth
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Prices and what affects them
You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Open a window after bathing
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Common problems we fix in Rawreth
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Gaps in the seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Questions to ask before you book
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What preparation is included
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
