Bath Resealing in Torksey
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Torksey, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
How we handle bath resealing in Torksey
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. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and a messy previous reseal, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Why it’s worth resealing in Torksey
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
Most clients in Torksey get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Let steam out after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Questions from Torksey
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Lincolnshire.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
