Bath resealing in West Butsfield, done in place
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are black spots in the silicone and gaps by the taps.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. 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.

What else we do in West Butsfield
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Different materials, different repairs
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, so the joint is at its widest.
West Butsfield: your questions answered
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Do you need bath resealing in West Butsfield?
Sealant doesn’t 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.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What prep work is covered
