About our bath resealing in Shatton
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most often call us about a messy previous reseal and black spots in the silicone.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire.

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Shatton. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Shatton, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Signs you need bath resealing in Shatton
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Black mould in the sealant
- An untidy old seal
- Stained silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Questions from Shatton
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, 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.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Derbyshire.
Resealing in Shatton: why it matters
Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Hidden water damage
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Shatton
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
