FAQs for Baildon
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you cover Baildon?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Baildon for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow around two hours.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Give the seal a regular clean
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, 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, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Do you need bath resealing in Baildon?
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:

- Old sealant that looks dirty
