Shower trays

About our bath resealing in West Littleton

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Common call-outs are for old sealant that looks dirty and black mould in the sealant, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What we are called out for in West Littleton

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Stained silicone
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Our hiring checklist

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Your questions about bath resealing in West Littleton

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work in West Littleton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to West Littleton and the rest of Wiltshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in West Littleton

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Use the extractor fan

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
