How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Bath resealing at your home in West Runton
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about sealant that’s split or lifting and stained silicone.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep the joints dry
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, 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.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Do you need bath resealing in West Runton?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- A messy previous reseal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you cannot clean out
Before booking anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Your questions about bath resealing in West Runton
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
