Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in South Kyme, Lincolnshire

- Leaks at the edges
- An untidy old seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Landlords, agents and businesses in South Kyme
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Bath resealing in South Kyme, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about mould you can’t clean out and damp near the bath.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Resealing in South Kyme: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What else we do in South Kyme
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A flexing bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Advice
South Kyme questions
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What bath resealing costs
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
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.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
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.
