Bath resealing in Yalding, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Open a window after bathing
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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.
Do you need bath resealing in Yalding?
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- An untidy old seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
- How the room is protected while they work
- How to look after the finish
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Why it’s worth resealing in Yalding
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it

Common questions in Yalding
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What bath resealing costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
