Book bath resealing in Wiggonholt

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Bath resealing in Wiggonholt without replacing anything

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours. If you are dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can usually put it right, on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Wiggonholt questions

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Wiggonholt included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What does bath resealing cost?

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Let steam out after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
