Bath resealing at your home in West Down
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include leaks at the edges and a messy previous reseal, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A flexing bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
