- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
Resealing in Willoughby-on-the-Wolds: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
