How we handle bath resealing in Willoughby Waterleys
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are old sealant that looks dirty and sealant that’s split or lifting.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
When to call us in Willoughby Waterleys
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Damp near the bath
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Gaps by the taps
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What affects the price in Willoughby Waterleys
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in Willoughby Waterleys get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Questions from Willoughby Waterleys
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover Willoughby Waterleys?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Willoughby Waterleys from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Willoughby Waterleys included. Travel is included in the price.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Hidden water damage
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
