About our bath resealing in Wilbarston
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and mould you can’t clean out, in kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price

Advice
Common questions in Wilbarston
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How much does bath resealing cost in Wilbarston?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Signs you need bath resealing in Wilbarston
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Unsealed corners
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you cannot clean out

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
