Bath resealing in Redhill, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal, across basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Redhill and across Bath and North East Somerset.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
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. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
When to call us in Redhill
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone
- An untidy old seal
- Black mould in the sealant
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Redhill: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work in Redhill?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Redhill and the rest of Bath and North East Somerset. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Are there extra charges for Redhill?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
