Bath resealing at your home in Storth
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and gaps by the taps, in wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Resealing in Storth: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Do you need bath resealing in Storth?
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

- Black spots in the silicone

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What bath resealing costs
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
