Bath resealing in St Philip's Marsh without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about leaks at the edges and stained silicone.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

FAQs for St Philip's Marsh
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Keep the joints dry
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When to call us in St Philip's Marsh
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Leaks at the edges
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
