How we handle bath resealing in Whitestone
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are stained silicone and silicone smeared on tiles.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Look out for any of the following:
- Stained silicone
- Gaps by the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Sealant that is split or lifting
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access

FAQs for Whitestone
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you work in Whitestone?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Whitestone for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How long does resealing take?
Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Whitestone. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Run 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.
What affects the price in Whitestone
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most customers in Whitestone get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
