How we handle bath resealing in Saxby
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for black spots in the silicone and unsealed corners, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Saxby. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Saxby: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
