Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Slawston, Northamptonshire
Fixed-price bath resealing in Slawston and the surrounding area, generally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Mould you cannot clean out

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Bath resealing at your home in Slawston
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. If you’re dealing with discoloured, yellow sealant and leaks at the edges, we can usually put it right.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Resealing in Slawston: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Open a window after bathing
- Dry the seal after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price

Advice
FAQs for Slawston
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Slawston?
Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your LE16 postcode.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you work in Slawston?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Slawston from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Slawston. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
