Bath resealing in St Paul's Walden

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Bath resealing in St Paul's Walden, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for black spots in the silicone and sealant that’s split or lifting, across shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Resealing in St Paul's Walden: why it matters

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

St Paul's Walden questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes St Paul's Walden. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
