Bath resealing in Ruislip, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and gaps in the seal, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Your questions about bath resealing in Ruislip
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Common problems we fix in Ruislip
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Common reasons people in Ruislip contact us are:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black spots in the silicone
- Unsealed corners
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How to care for the finish
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Resealing in Ruislip: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
