What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.

Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for South Normanton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair

Common questions in South Normanton
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How much does bath resealing cost in South Normanton?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
When to call us in South Normanton
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to look after the finish
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Why it’s worth resealing in South Normanton
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
