Common problems we fix in Sheldon Corner
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Missing sealant behind the taps
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the colour is matched
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Use the extractor fan
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Sheldon Corner questions
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Resealing in Sheldon Corner: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
