Bath resealing in Allerston, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and leaks at the edges, we can generally put it right.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

Signs you need bath resealing in Allerston
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- A messy previous reseal
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps by the taps
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- How soon you can use it again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Questions from Allerston
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you work in Allerston?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Allerston and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
How we price bath resealing
We don’t charge extra for travel to Allerston. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. 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.
