Bath resealing at your home in Walesby
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Typical jobs include discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps by the taps, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Do you need bath resealing in Walesby?
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Gaps by the taps
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Silicone smeared on tiles
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
- What aftercare is recommended
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A flexing bath
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Walesby questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, typically around a day.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
