Bath resealing in Windy Arbour, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are leaks at the edges and sealant that’s split or lifting.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Windy Arbour

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps by the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Choosing a repair company

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take around two hours.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms

How we price bath resealing

We don’t charge extra for travel to Windy Arbour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Windy Arbour. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Windy Arbour, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
