How we handle bath resealing in Birkby
Preparation is everything in a reseal: 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. We’re often asked to fix sealant that’s split or lifting and black spots in the silicone, across kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire.

Birkby questions
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Are there extra charges for Birkby?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A flexing bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
What we are called out for in Birkby
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Birkby use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Why it’s worth resealing in Birkby
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
