Upper Whiston: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Bath resealing at your home in Upper Whiston
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. Our technicians work on baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and mould you can’t clean out.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Upper Whiston and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Resealing in Upper Whiston: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Signs you need bath resealing in Upper Whiston
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Unsealed corners
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
