Bath resealing in Woodhouse Eaves without replacing anything
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect 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 stained silicone and damp near the bath, on baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Woodhouse Eaves and across Leicestershire.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What else we do in Woodhouse Eaves
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep the joints dry
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Hidden water damage
- A flexing bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

How we price bath resealing
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Why it’s worth resealing in Woodhouse Eaves
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No extra charge for your area
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Fixed prices from your photos

What we’re called out for in Woodhouse Eaves
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

- Gaps in the seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty

Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
