About bath resealing in Hull
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Typical jobs include sealant that’s split or lifting and missing sealant behind the taps, across shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

Repair or replace?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive.
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What prep work is covered
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
How we price bath resealing
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
Hull questions
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
