Bath resealing in Rufford without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and missing sealant behind the taps, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
How we price bath resealing
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What else we do in Rufford
Landlords, agents and businesses in Rufford
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Rufford: your questions answered
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?
The whole UK, including all of Nottinghamshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What we are called out for in Rufford
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Stained silicone
- Gaps by the taps
Before you book anyone
- When it can be used again
- If travel is included in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- 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, taps included.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
