We’re frequently asked to fix damp near the bath and gaps by the taps, in baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled 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
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
