Bath resealing in Shute End without replacing anything
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. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and black mould in the sealant, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Shute End
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Shute End included. Travel is included in the price.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How long will it take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Look out for any of the following:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
- Sealant that is split or lifting

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A flexing bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Let steam out after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Give the seal a regular clean
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
