Bath resealing in Springholm without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are stained silicone and leaks at the edges.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A flexing bath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to compare quotes

Springholm questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Are there extra charges for Springholm?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

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.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
