How we handle bath resealing in Whittingham
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are black mould in the sealant and unsealed corners.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.

Advice
What affects the price in Whittingham
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most clients in Whittingham 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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Your questions about bath resealing in Whittingham
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Do you need bath resealing in Whittingham?
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

- Unsealed corners
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
