What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Questions from Skitham
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
Why it’s worth resealing in Skitham
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why Skitham clients choose us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- No need to remove anything
- One visit for most repairs
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
