Bath resealing at your home in Yelvertoft
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are damp near the bath and discoloured, yellow sealant.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in Yelvertoft
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Yelvertoft.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep bottles off the joints
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
