Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Theale, West Berkshire
Bath resealing in and around Theale: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Gaps by the taps
How we handle bath resealing in Theale
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you are dealing with gaps by the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can generally put it right, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Do you need bath resealing in Theale?
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
- A messy previous reseal
- Black mould in the sealant
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How to look after the finish
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Theale. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Theale. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Theale, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Why it’s worth resealing in Theale
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- We leave the room as we found it
