About our bath resealing in Boldron
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and an untidy old seal, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
Your questions about bath resealing in Boldron
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How long does resealing take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Boldron
Letting agents frequently 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.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in County Durham and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
