About our bath resealing in Bramhope
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We’re often asked to fix a messy previous reseal and unsealed corners, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Resealing in Bramhope: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
When to call us in Bramhope
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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.
- 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
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What affects the price in Bramhope
There’s no area surcharge for Bramhope. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Bramhope, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Common questions in Bramhope
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
