Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Southgate, Ceredigion
Bath resealing across Southgate and nearby, typically in one visit.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- A messy previous reseal
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Bath resealing in Southgate without replacing anything
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and sealant that’s split or lifting.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How we price bath resealing
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Southgate: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
