Whether it’s stained silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures alike.

Common problems we fix in Wootton
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles

- Whether a trained technician does the job
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you are in Wootton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Wootton questions
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

- A fixed quote before booking
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
If you manage property in Wootton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Air the room after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
