Bath resealing in South Kilvington, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and stained silicone.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Why it’s worth resealing in South Kilvington
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- 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, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in South Kilvington
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
