Bath resealing in Whitmore without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are mould you can’t clean out and silicone smeared on tiles.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
Why it’s worth resealing in Whitmore
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Common questions in Whitmore
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What we are called out for in Whitmore
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Common reasons people in Whitmore contact us include:
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Dry the seal after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What bath resealing costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Whitmore. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
