Bath Resealing in Vicarscross
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Vicarscross, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Old sealant that looks dirty

How we handle bath resealing in Vicarscross
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about black mould in the sealant and gaps in the seal.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What else we do in Vicarscross
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Your questions about bath resealing in Vicarscross
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Vicarscross.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
When to call us in Vicarscross
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- An untidy old seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Mould you cannot clean out
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- What preparation is included
- How soon you can use it again
- What protection goes down before work starts
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Keep the joints dry
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
