About our bath resealing in South Wigston
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are gaps in the seal and silicone smeared on tiles.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What else we do in South Wigston
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Rooms protected and left tidy

South Wigston: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you cover South Wigston?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to South Wigston and the rest of Leicester. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes around two 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.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE18 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Signs you need bath resealing in South Wigston
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.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Leaks at the edges
- An untidy old seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Gaps in the seal
