Bath resealing in Wain Lee without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and gaps by the taps, we can usually put it right, on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Wain Lee and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed 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, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Wain Lee
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Open a window after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Signs you need bath resealing in Wain Lee
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Gaps in the seal
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who will actually do the work

Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Why reseal now?
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. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One-year guarantee on every repair
