Bath resealing in Wistow, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s stained silicone and a messy previous reseal, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Wistow questions
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Wistow?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wistow. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
When to call us in Wistow
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Leaks at the edges
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
