Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Wotton, Gloucestershire
Bath resealing across Wotton and nearby, generally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Stained silicone
Bath resealing in Wotton, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are black spots in the silicone and a messy previous reseal.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Store bottles on a shelf
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Wotton?
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
People typically call us after spotting something like this:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again
What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wotton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Advice
Wotton questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you work in Wotton?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Wotton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
