Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in West Lavington, West Sussex
Bath resealing across West Lavington and nearby, usually in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
How we handle bath resealing in West Lavington
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are old sealant that looks dirty and water getting behind the bath or tray.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Questions from West Lavington
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How long before I can shower?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What affects the price in West Lavington
You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for West Lavington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
