Bath resealing in St Margarets, done in place
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We’re often asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and mould you can’t clean out, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep the joints dry
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Why reseal now?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Your questions about bath resealing in St Margarets
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
