Bath Resealing for Torksey Lock homes
Our technicians come to Torksey Lock for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Stained silicone
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
About our bath resealing in Torksey Lock
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about stained silicone and black spots in the silicone.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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, a professional repair is worth it.

Is resealing worth it?

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
