How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What else we do in Walby
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Walby
There’s no charge for travel to Walby. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Walby. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Walby, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Resealing in Walby: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Generally one visit, start to finish

Common problems we fix in Walby
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles

Common questions in Walby
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
