Summary: Removing Sealant from Bath and Basins
To remove sealant from around basins, baths and even windows, click on the tools at the bottom to buy sealant remover, applicator gun and new sealants for bath or shower.
Removing sealant is a fiddley job, make sure you get it all off before attempting to apply new. Applying new sealant over the top of old, leaking sealant never works as the adhesion of the existing sealant to the bath or shower, and tiles, is what counts. It does not matter how much sealant you apply over the top, if the existing sealant is leaking then the odds are that it still will. See our project on leaking showers and baths also as the fact that the sealant has split means that your bath or shower may need some adjustment to stop it moving.
