About our bath resealing in Tai-Bach
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about mould you can’t clean out and silicone smeared on tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Tai-Bach as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a couple of hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Why it’s worth resealing in Tai-Bach
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
Read our pricing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
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 normally the cheaper route.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Questions from Tai-Bach
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Do you come to Tai-Bach?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Tai-Bach from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tai-Bach as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
