Bath resealing at your home in Wallsuches
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths, and the jobs we see most are unsealed corners and leaks at the edges.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Wallsuches?
Sealant doesn’t 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.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Gaps by the taps
- Leaks at the edges

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly 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 will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
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.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
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.
