What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Let steam out after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
