Bath resealing in Steeple View, done in place
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and unsealed corners, in wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

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
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlord and trade work in Steeple View
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Steeple View as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
Do you need bath resealing in Steeple View?
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Leaks at the edges
- Black mould in the sealant
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Advice
Common questions in Steeple View
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. 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.
