About our bath resealing in Sausthorpe
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and gaps in the seal, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Questions from Sausthorpe
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Sausthorpe and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Sausthorpe.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sausthorpe use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including Sausthorpe. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Sausthorpe, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
