Bath resealing in Waterside, done in place
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s stained silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can generally put it right.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- 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, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Waterside, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Buckinghamshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Your questions about bath resealing in Waterside
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What affects the price in Waterside
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Waterside
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gaps by the taps
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Black spots in the silicone
Before booking anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether they match the colour on site
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
