Bath resealing at your home in West Herrington
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and stained silicone.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What else we do in West Herrington
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Herrington use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
The process
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price

- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps in the seal

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
