Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Ubley Sideling, Bath and North East Somerset
Bath resealing in and around Ubley Sideling: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- An untidy old seal
Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we handle bath resealing in Ubley Sideling
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bath and North East Somerset.

When to call us in Ubley Sideling
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

- Black mould in the sealant

Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What does bath resealing cost?

Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
