Bath resealing at your home in Bishop Middleham
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal, we can help.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

When to call us in Bishop Middleham
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- A messy previous reseal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Common questions in Bishop Middleham
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, usually around a day.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bishop Middleham use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
