Advice
About our bath resealing in Shopwyke
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting behind the bath or tray and mould you can’t clean out.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

Questions from Shopwyke
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We will give you the curing time.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
What we’re called out for in Shopwyke
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Look out for any of the following:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Mould you cannot clean out
- An untidy old seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
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.

What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Shopwyke, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Shopwyke
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
