About bath resealing in Cookstown
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We’re often asked to fix silicone smeared on tiles and mould you can’t clean out, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we’re called out for in Cookstown
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Landlord and trade work in Cookstown
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cookstown use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Repair or replace?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors.
