Your questions about bath resealing in Weston-on-Trent
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your DE72 postcode.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
About our bath resealing in Weston-on-Trent
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for water getting behind the bath or tray and an untidy old seal, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Weston-on-Trent as everywhere else we work.

Do you need bath resealing in Weston-on-Trent?
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Stained silicone
- An untidy old seal
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Gaps in the seal

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep the joints dry
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Why reseal now?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most clients in Weston-on-Trent get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
