Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Westcott, Surrey
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Westcott, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Bath resealing in Westcott, done in place
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We’re often asked to fix stained silicone and black spots in the silicone, on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two 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.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price

Landlords, agents and businesses in Westcott
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Westcott, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair

- Shower trays & enclosures

Questions from Westcott
Do you come to Westcott?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Westcott for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What affects the price in Westcott
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, pictures 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.
