How we handle bath resealing in Thorpe in the Glebe
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about leaks at the edges and gaps in the seal.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
