Bath resealing in Sladesbridge without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are unsealed corners and black mould in the sealant.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What bath resealing costs
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Sladesbridge, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Sladesbridge: your questions answered
How long will it take?
Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Sladesbridge.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
