Bath resealing in Shaw Mills, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 will not last.
Resealing in Shaw Mills: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Shaw Mills. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One visit for most repairs
- Work done at your home or business
- No extra charge for your area
See our pricing.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units

Shaw Mills questions
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you come to Shaw Mills?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Shaw Mills from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Shaw Mills, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What we are called out for in Shaw Mills
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps in the seal
What to look for in a quote
- How to look after the finish
- How the colour is matched
- What preparation is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
