About our bath resealing in Rodmell
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are stained silicone and silicone smeared on tiles.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
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.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rodmell
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
For anyone letting property in or around Rodmell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Questions from Rodmell
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How long does resealing take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
