What we’re called out for in Upton
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Leaks at the edges
- Mould you cannot clean out
- A messy previous reseal
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the room is protected while they work
- How the colour is matched
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Upton
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Questions from Upton
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Do you work in Upton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Upton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Upton?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
