Bathroom silicone sealant doesn’t last forever. When it turns black with mould, peels away or starts leaking, it needs to go. Here’s what you can expect to pay for a professional replacement.

What’s Included in a Professional Reseal?

A professional sealant replacement isn’t just squeezing new silicone over old. It involves:

  1. Removal of all old sealant using specialist tools (no scoring of tiles or surfaces)
  2. Cleaning and degreasing the joint
  3. Application of fungicidal primer where needed
  4. Neat application of new, mould-resistant silicone
  5. Professional tooling for a flat, clean finish

The difference between a professional result and a DIY result is immediately visible — clean, consistent lines vs a lumpy, uneven bead.

Why Not Just DIY?

DIY silicone is cheap but unforgiving. The most common DIY mistakes are: not removing old sealant fully, applying over mould (which grows back through the new sealant within weeks), and poor finishing that looks worse than the original problem.

For a bathroom fitting that will look good for years, professional application is worth the cost.
