Bath resealing at your home in York
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and sealant that’s split or lifting, in basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
What it costs in York
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Around York
We visit homes around All Saints RC School, Roots (formerly The Bay Horse) pub and Queen Anne Grammar School and the streets around them. You’ll also find Scarcroft Primary School (0.5 miles south), St Olave's Church (less than half a mile north-east) and Rowntree Park (1 mile south). There is a railway station in York itself: York station. Well-known places in the area include York Castle (0.5 miles south-east) and Middlethorpe Without (2 miles south). For a walk, there’s Siward's Howe.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Landlord and trade work in York
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we’re called out for in York
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An untidy old seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black mould in the sealant
- Sealant that is split or lifting
What bath resealing costs
We charge the same across the UK, including York. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for York. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common questions in York
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover the entire of York?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
How long does resealing take?
Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
