About our bath resealing in Thulston
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and old sealant that looks dirty.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- 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 apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?
The entire UK, including all of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Why it’s worth resealing in Thulston
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Let steam out after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
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.
