Bath resealing at your home in Whitton
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We work on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and missing sealant behind the taps.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Resealing in Whitton: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us

Common questions in Whitton
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What affects the price in Whitton
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Whitton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
If you manage property in Whitton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
- Let steam out after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours. We leave the room clean.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
