Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Scrooby Top, Nottinghamshire
Bath resealing across Scrooby Top and nearby, typically in one visit.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can

How we handle bath resealing in Scrooby Top
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are missing sealant behind the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Nottinghamshire.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Open a window after bathing
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How we price bath resealing
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most clients in Scrooby Top get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Your questions about bath resealing in Scrooby Top
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
