Bath resealing in Slatyford without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We are frequently asked to fix mould you can’t clean out and silicone coming away from the tiles, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How we price bath resealing
There’s no area surcharge for Slatyford. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Shower trays

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep bottles off the joints
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

FAQs for Slatyford
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Slatyford.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
