About our bath resealing in St Ibbs
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most frequently call us about a messy previous reseal and mould you can’t clean out.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in St Ibbs and across Hertfordshire.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, 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.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Resealing in St Ibbs: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Signs you need bath resealing in St Ibbs
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
