About our bath resealing in Shillford
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We are often asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and leaks at the edges, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price bath resealing
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
For a price in Shillford, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What else we do in Shillford
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shillford as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Common problems we fix in Shillford
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:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black spots in the silicone
- An untidy old seal
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
- How the room is protected while they work
Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
FAQs for Shillford
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
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.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Shillford?

Resealing in Shillford: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
