Bath resealing at your home in Shiskine
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for discoloured, yellow sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Do you need bath resealing in Shiskine?
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Gaps in the seal
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Unsealed corners
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Your questions about bath resealing in Shiskine
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time, normally around a day.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What else we do in Shiskine
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
