Bath resealing in Waterfoot, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

More services for Waterfoot
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waterfoot as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Common questions in Waterfoot
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you work in Waterfoot?
We do. We send a technician to Waterfoot for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 photos.
