How we handle bath resealing in Walford
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Walford
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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 generally the cheaper route.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on

- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Walford. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walford use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
