Bath resealing in Wallend, done in place
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and an untidy old seal.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for Wallend
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Resealing in Wallend: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Let steam out after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, 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.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
